You might want to reconsider allowing this irq handler to do any prints.
80 characters take 5 ms to print on a 115 kbps serial port, which can
lead to RCU stalls, soft lockups, etc.

If kept, dev_err_ratelimited would be a little safer.

In some systems "spurious interrupts" are routine and are not really a
problem unless you overreact to them.
