While I don't think Doug has MSI-X adapters, a complete patch would

all request_irq() calls to use IRQF_DISABLED, right?

The above patch takes care of replacing all the IRQF_SHARED flags in irq
registrations with IRQF_DISABLED.

Yes ... but even for the MSI-X case, you want the handler to be run with
interrupts disabled, don't you?  If not, why not?

Yeah you're right. For some reason, request_irq for MSI-X passes 0 as the irq flag. We need to take care of that.
Thanks,
