Hello Julien,
I am afraid the setting of priority is not correct here. If the irq is in redistributor(gic_irq(d) < 32),
we should set the priority on each cpu, while we just set the priority on the current cpu here.
static inline void __iomem *gic_dist_base(struct irq_data *d)
{
if (gic_irq_in_rdist(d)) /* SGI+PPI -> SGI_base for this CPU */
return gic_data_rdist_sgi_base();

if (d->hwirq <= 1023) /* SPI -> dist_base */
return gic_data.dist_base;

return NULL;
}

I tried to add a smp_call_function here, but the kernel reported a warning as we have disabled irq
when calling raw_spin_lock_irqsave in request_nmi or ready_percpu_nmi.
[ 2.137262] Call trace:

I am exploring a better way to solve this issue.
