Hi

In theory, no. I only tested 5.0, 4.20, both can reproduce this warning.

The warning comes from calling generic_handle_irq() in usb tasklet context.
This is not correct.

Per my understanding, if there's chained irq, we could introduce extra
irqdomain. E.g

GIC <--> another irqchip controller <--> HW device

But in lan78xx, this is not the case. There's no chained irq at all.
In fact, there's a bit INT_ENP_PHY_INT in MAC's Interrupt Endpoint status
word to indicate this is PHY interrupt. So this is the case
PHY_IGNORE_INTERRUPT/phy_mac_interrupt intend for.

irq experts knows irqdomain etc better, maybe they can provide more inputs

The patch removes the generic_handle_irq() calling from invalid context.

Thanks
