On some systems probe_nr_irqs() can return a value larger than NR_IRQS. This will lead to probe_irq_on() overrunning the irq_desc array.
Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings <bhutchings@solarflare.com> --- arch/x86/kernel/io_apic.c | 2 ++ 1 files changed, 2 insertions(+), 0 deletions(-) I hit this when running net-next-2.6 (close to 2.6.28-rc3) on a Supermicro dual Xeon system. NR_IRQS is 224 but probe_nr_irqs() detects 5 IOAPICs and returns 240. Here are the log messages:

I have added a WARN_ON() as suggested by Yinghai Lu.
