In fact I already sent a patch to fix that when I started my SPARSE_IRQ cleanup, but it looks like it was never merged :-( I guess I forgot a little bit that series. http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-arm-kernel/2012-February/086076.html Author: Benoit Cousson <b-cousson@xxxxxx> Date: Thu Feb 23 18:44:27 2012 +0100 ARM: OMAP2+: wakeupgen: Fix wrong array size for irq_target_cpu The wakeupgen was wrongly allocating an array based on the NR_IRQS value (410 on OMAP4) whereas it is just capable of handling 128 entries. Moreover with SPARSE_IRQ, the NR_IRQS number might be 16, and thus cannot handle the proper number of entries. It will generate an oops as soon a driver will request an IRQ > 16. Allocate the array using the fixed MAX_IRQS value (128).
