The AMD SFH driver requests interrupts without IRQF_SHARED.
This can cause VFIO PCI passthrough initialization to fail
when a passed-through device shares the interrupt with AMD MP2.

Request the interrupt with IRQF_SHARED and check if any flags
are cleared before acknowledging an interrupt.

The IRQF_SHARED conversion and returning IRQ_NONE when no MP2 interrupt
is pending look correct.

Could you please make these updates?

1. This is a long-standing regression introduced by:
Fixes: 7f016b35ca76 ("HID: amd_sfh: Add interrupt handler to process interrupts")
Cc: stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

2. The commit message wording is confusing:
"check if any flags are cleared before acknowledging an interrupt"

The code checks for a pending MP2 interrupt before clearing/acknowledging
it. Please reword this accordingly.

Also, please include the test environment and the actual failure/success
result: host platform, passed-through PCI device, the original VFIO error,
and confirmation that the device now initializes successfully.

Thanks,
