This is about the fifth report of unhandled interrupts. Against the fifth driver which looks to be correct.
So I'd be suspecting the scenario which Alan outlined: the IRQ handler looped around, scooped up the interrupt source before the APIC delivered the IRQ.
I'm working on the actual detection code - it tries to filter out the false positives.
Suggest we ignore these reports until that is sorted out. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
