Something doesn't add up.  Nowhere in the udev source is there a
single mention of irq.

gsi have fixed interrupt numbers so that would not change.

The dynamic irqs are allocated starting from the high gsi
and working up.

The irq numbers that get allocated should not have changed,
unless this was actually a bug fix in this configuration.

The other possibility is that somehow arch_probe_nr_irqs()
was returning a number greater than NR_IRQS.

Ingo do you have any idea what NR_IRQS or nr_irqs were/are on
that failing machine?
