Can you please make that DEFINE_RAW_SPINLOCK as it nests into the irq
descriptor lock.

Please use KernelDoc style documentation if you want to document your
data structures.

Well, this is a hard problem for shared vectors. The question is
whether we really want to expose that at the per device level or
rather at the demultiplexing level.

That looks smarter. Though we might need some more complex way to do
that when interrupt affinity comes into play.

Please remind me, that I still need to fix that life time problem in
the core.

This is a MSI interrupt which is never shared.

Aside of the few nitpicks above I'm really happy with the interrupt
side of that driver. Thanks for following up on all the comments!

Thanks,
