SubjectRe: [PATCH v3 0/2] irqchip/gic-v3-its: Balance LPI affinity across CPUs

So I made this change:

}

return IRQ_SET_MASK_OK_DONE;
}

Results look ok:
nvme.use_threaded_interrupts=1 =0*
Before 950K IOPs 1000K IOPs
After 1100K IOPs 1150K IOPs
* as mentioned before, this is quite unstable and causes lockups. JFYI,
there was an attempt to fix this:

Thanks,
