I also have this issue. Unfortunately pci read only gives an irq of 255
in secure boot mode and I don't want to struggle with kernel/module
signing to test this.
I found one issue with this patch:
For xhci legacy PCI is not tried to be set up now anymore (before MSI(x)
is tried) which is a correct fix.
But in xhci_try_enable_msi() drivers/usb/host/xhci.c if MSI is known broken
(xhci->quirks & XHCI_BROKEN_MSI), it relies on legacy IRQ being enabled
already.
Instead it should use the "enable legacy IRQ" code later in the same function
which is the fallback if MSI setup does not succeed.
I send an updated version taking care about above and including the "do not
split string" concern Sergei mentioned.
