Hello Paul,

I have explained that this is one aacraid issue in the following link:

https://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=153413115909580&w=2

So this issue should have been fixed in the driver instead of genirq
core code, otherwise regression on other drivers can be caused too.

So I suggest you to ask aacraid guys to take a look at this issue.

Thanks,
Ming
