    PCI: msi: Disable msi interrupts when we initialize a pci device · d5dea7d9
    Eric W. Biederman 提交于
    I traced a nasty kexec on panic boot failure to the fact that we had
    screaming msi interrupts and we were not disabling the msi messages at
    kernel startup.  The booting kernel had not enabled those interupts so
    was not prepared to handle them.
    
    I can see no reason why we would ever want to leave the msi interrupts
    enabled at boot if something else has enabled those interrupts.  The pci
    spec specifies that msi interrupts should be off by default.  Drivers
    are expected to enable the msi interrupts if they want to use them.  Our
    interrupt handling code reprograms the interrupt handlers at boot and
    will not be be able to do anything useful with an unexpected interrupt.
    
    This patch applies cleanly all of the way back to 2.6.32 where I noticed
    the problem.
