What the warnings mean is that the ack for irq86 did not reach
the hardware before that interrupt got unmasked again.

To fix this, find the irq handler for irq86, and add a readback
of the interrupt status register or revision register to the
interrupt handler right after the write acking the interrupt.

To see some examples, please do:

$ grep -ri "flush posted write" drivers/

Regards,

Tony
