Request for interrupt failed: 0xc0350005" error, as reported in https://github.com/Microsoft/azure-linux-kernel/issues/13. The 2 extra fixes depend on a few more patches, and a manual resolution of conflicts is required... Backporting all the required patches to v4.9 seems too many. IMO we may as well simply drop this patch ("PCI: hv: Serialize the present and eject work items") for v4.9 and 4.10, 4.11 and 4.12, which are all broken due to the same reason. I can confirm this patch ("PCI: hv: Serialize the present and eject work items") can be applied cleanly to v4.13+. PS, For Hyper-V users that want PCIe-pass-through and NIC SR-IOV on some certain versions of kernels, they can pick the patches here: https://github.com/Microsoft/azure-linux-kernel. Thanks, -- Dexuan
