It's not necessarily the best example for you, of course; if you
have an integrated transceiver, you won't need to dodge around
the I2C latencies or I2C API goofs (can't submit in_irq, etc).
Plus, on some hardware the transceiver and OTG controller don't
appear to the driver as separate event sources.

The main thing you need to pay attention to is the OTG state
transitions, and your hardware may not make them look much
at all like that combination of controller-plus-transceiver.

I assume you mean omap_otg_irq().  One reason the "todo" bitmask is
used is to help ensure that multiple events can be delivered to that
tasklet ... and you'll notice that the tasklet does have logic to
cope with multiple pending events.

Those atomic bit ops are, well, atomic.
