Thanks for reporting this bug and confirming that the fix works.
I'll try to prepare a stable update soon.
Is it enough though? I’m still getting these with the latest version:
Cannot change IRQ 174 affinity: Permission denied
IRQ 174 affinity is now unmanaged
Cannot change IRQ 164 affinity: Permission denied
IRQ 164 affinity is now unmanaged
Cannot change IRQ 182 affinity: Permission denied
IRQ 182 affinity is now unmanaged
Cannot change IRQ 172 affinity: Permission denied
IRQ 172 affinity is now unmanaged
