SubjectRe: realtek,rtl-intc IRQ mapping broken on 5.16-rc1
From
Date
Hi,

I would vote for (2), the somewhat dirty fix, at least for now.
We are working on an updated version of this driver for newer Realtek
SoCs (RTL839x, RTL930x), which support VSMP and where there are
multiple instances of this controller to support per-cpu IRQs.
However, this is not ready for prime-time yet. But at that
time we would also fix the IRQ map.

Cheers,
Birger
