There is a vector setup race, which overwrites the interrupt descriptor in the per CPU vector array resulting in a disfunctional device.
CPU0 CPU1 interrupt is raised in APIC IRR but not handled free_irq() per_cpu(vector_irq, CPU1)[vector] = VECTOR_SHUTDOWN;
request_irq() common_interrupt() d = this_cpu_read(vector_irq[vector]);
per_cpu(vector_irq, CPU1)[vector] = desc;
if (d == VECTOR_SHUTDOWN) this_cpu_write(vector_irq[vector], VECTOR_UNUSED);
free_irq() cannot observe the pending vector in the CPU1 APIC as there is no way to query the remote CPUs APIC IRR.
This requires that request_irq() uses the same vector/CPU as the one which was freed, but this also can be triggered by a spurious interrupt.
Interestingly enough this problem managed to be hidden for more than a decade.
Prevent this by reevaluating vector_irq under the vector lock, which is held by the interrupt activation code when vector_irq is updated.
