All 5 IRQ handlers of the driver are requested as threaded interrupt
handlers.  However, only 1 handler can block.  The remaining 4 handlers
defer the actual handling to a workqueue.  Hence, 4 of 5 IRQ handlers
have a considerable overhead, since they are executed in a kernel thread
to schedule another kernel thread (workqueue).

This change splits up the 5 interrupt handlers into top halves (_th) and
bottom halves (_bh) and resolves the aforementioned overhead by only
requesting threaded interrupts (i.e., bottom halves) when necessary.

Due to the lack of hardware I cannot test this change.  

I discovered this issue with scripts/coccinelle/misc/irqf_oneshot.cocci since
the threaded interrupts were not requested with IRQF_ONESHOT.  By looking closer
I saw the issue of this change.
