I think that that wouldn't report anything because when the UART is
triggering an interrupt here, the MSI address/data are zero, so the
IRQ handler is not actually invoked.

If Ilpo doesn't beat me to it, I'll try adding some debug code to see
exactly which UART register write in the tty open path is causing the
UART to signal an interrupt before the IRQ handler is set up.

(The IOMMU stops the write in this case, so the machine doesn't crash,
we just get an I/O page fault warning in dmesg every time this happens.)

Thank you!
