/**
 * irq_disable - Mark interupt disabled
 * @desc:	irq descriptor which should be disabled
 *
 * If the chip does not implement the irq_disable callback, we
 * use a lazy disable approach. That means we mark the interrupt
 * disabled, but leave the hardware unmasked. That's an
 * optimization because we avoid the hardware access for the
 * common case where no interrupt happens after we marked it
 * disabled. If an interrupt happens, then the interrupt flow
 * handler masks the line at the hardware level and marks it
 * pending.
