SubjectRe: 2.6.2-rc3: irq#19 - nobody cared - with an au88xx
FromLen Brown <>

Can you isolate this regression to a specific release?  There have been
several changes to arch/i386/kernel/irq.c since 2.6.0-test7.  Also, it
would be interesting to know if it also happens with CONFIG_SMP=n (but
with the IOAPIC still enabled)  Plus, a sanity check of the rate of
interrutps reported by /proc/interrupts might yield a clue.

thanks,

ps.
You can avoid the symptom by booting with "noirqdebug" or having the
interrupt handling always return IRQ_HANDLED.  But then we'd lose the
means to find out why the driver is receiving interrupts for which it
can find no cause.
