if you need any more information, or have something for me to try,
please just ask. I did look at the code and the documentation about
enabling MSI, but did not see anything (obvious) wrong, so I don't
know what to try next.

Can you please try the attached patch?

Thanks.


It'd be interesting to see if it makes a difference, but I don't think the patch is quite right. According to the datasheet, doing the MSI ack while the interrupt source is still pending will cause a new MSI to be sent, so if you do it before handling the interrupt you'll generate a spurious interrupt after every real one.

Though, apparently my patch that did the MSI ack after the handling didn't help, so either that's wrong or the problem is unrelated. (I tend to suspect the latter, given that sata_nv is also failing in the same way.)
