From: Madhuparna Bhowmik <madhuparnabhowmik10@xxxxxxxxx> engine->stat_irq_thresh was initialized after device_create_file() in the probe function, the initialization may race with call to spacc_stat_irq_thresh_store() which updates engine->stat_irq_thresh, therefore initialize it before creating the file in probe function.
