I really prefer the two-level Linux way of doing it, simply because I think
it's
more clean. I my opinion the first level should not be aware of the
different
interrupts for the different devices. This should be up to the specific
driver to deal with.
Isn't it quite obvious that it's up to the second level dvd driver (or
whatever driver) to find out if it's a
dvd_transfer_complete or a dvd_transfer_error interrupt?

This is just my point of view anyway....
