(The difference between remove() and devres > release phase is that for the latter sysfs files are already removed.) True, therefore non-devm interrupts are recommended also in such case. Maybe one of my solutions is actually not recommended. However if done right, driver with non-shared interrupts, is expected to disable interrupts in remove(), thus there is no risk. We have big discussions in the past about it, so feel free to dig through LKML to read more about. Anyway shared and devm is a clear no go. Best regards, Krzysztof
