SubjectRe: WARNING and PANIC in irq_matrix_free
Hi,

We are seeing something probably related.

We run ethtool on a system with Broadcom NIC to increase number of
combined queues.


[root@ ~]# ethtool -l eth0
Channel parameters for eth0:
Pre-set maximums:
RX: 9
TX: 8
Other: 0
Combined: 17
Current hardware settings:
RX: 0
TX: 0
Other: 0
Combined: 8

[root@ ~]# ethtool -L eth0 combined 16

The last command PANIC the kernel easily (5 out of 5 in my tests).

I haven't got luck to catch much console output, the only line I got is:

[ 504.727865] WARNING: CPU: 10 PID: 0 at kernel/irq/matrix.c:371
irq_matrix_free+0x32/0xd0

The NIC we have is

Broadcom Limited BCM57302 NetXtreme-C 10Gb/25Gb Ethernet Controller

Thanks,
Song
