Which kernel were you testing on, here?  From what I can tell, this

Thanks Julia for looking into this. I just looked at the code, and saw
that it does very little with the lock held, and was fine with the
conversion. But if that interrupt handler should be in a thread, we
should see if that's the issue first.


It will not be threaded because there are IRQF_ONESHOT used.

        ret = devm_request_threaded_irq(&pdev->dev, irq,
                                        sti_mbox_irq_handler,
                                        sti_mbox_thread_handler,
                                        IRQF_ONESHOT, mdev->name, mdev);



Which landed in 4.4.  It forces the primary handler to be threaded as
well.


Lionel,

Can you check if this is an issue with 4.4 too?
