Latest Linus kernel, but it's been there a while:

static struct irqaction irq_ipi = {

	.flags		= IRQF_DISABLED,
	.name		= "SMTC_IPI",
	.flags		= IRQF_PERCPU
};

.flags is initialized twice: I'm amazed this even compiles.
I don't know where that came from. The very earliest versions of smtc.c didn't have a declaration initialization at all, but filled the fields in setup_cross_vpe_interrupts(). The IRQ was PERCPU since day one. The initial DISABLED state came later. I'm guessing someone added that hastily and didn't notice the pre-existing .flags definition. I'm curious as to which bit(s) are actually set.
