Since commit 4cfffcfa5106 ("irqchip/mips-gic: Fix local interrupts"), the gic driver has been allocating virq's for local interrupts during its initialisation. Unfortunately on Malta platforms, these are the first IRQs to be allocated and so are allocated virqs 1-3. The i8259 driver uses a legacy irq domain which expects to map virqs 0-15. Probing of that driver therefore fails because some of those virqs are already taken, with the warning: WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 0 at kernel/irq/irqdomain.c:344 irq_domain_associate+0x1e8/0x228 error: virq1 is already associated Modules linked in: CPU: 0 PID: 0 Comm: swapper/0 Not tainted 4.10.0-rc6-00011-g4cfffcfa5106 #368 Stack : 00000000 00000000 807ae03a 0000004d 00000000 806c1010 0000000b ffff0a01 80725467 807258f4 806a64a4 00000000 00000000 807a9acc 00000100 80713e68 806d5598 8017593c 8072bf90 8072bf94 806ac358 00000000 806abb60 80713ce4 00000100 801b22d4 806d5598 8017593c 807ae03a 00000000 80713ce4 80720000 00000000 00000000 00000000 00000000 00000000 00000000 00000000 00000000 ...
