Hi Weitao, thanks for catching this.

I'd rather (or also) add:

  Fixes: b56ebe7c896d ("x86/apic/msi: Fix misconfigured non-maskable MSI quirk")

As I recall, I started out trying to fix the issue, but then got too focused on
removing the flag. I missed that the check needed to be inverted. This
left the race unfixed and also made maskable interrupts possibly take the slow
path unnecessarily. Sorry for the trouble. Feel free to use this if it helps:
