also request_threaded_irq() will yell at you if you call it for a percpu
interrupt.
Care to rewrite the changelog and make that conditional:
irqreturn_t __handle_irq_event_percpu(struct irq_desc *desc, unsigned int *flags)
{
+ bool percpu = irq_settings_is_per_cpu_devid(desc);
irqreturn_t retval = IRQ_NONE;
unsigned int irq = desc->irq_data.irq;
struct irqaction *action;
@@ -142,9 +143,15 @@ irqreturn_t __handle_irq_event_percpu(st
for_each_action_of_desc(desc, action) {
irqreturn_t res;
+ void *dev_id;
+
+ if (!percpu))
+ dev_id = action->dev_id;
+ else
+ dev_id = raw_cpu_ptr(action->percpu_dev_id);
