This patch is wrong and there is no reason to even suspect it will
affect this problem.  At best this patch will trade one set of bugs
for another because at least on some platforms we always did something
like this.  Having an irq 35 is odd and certainly a result of recent
changes, but in this case it doesn't look like it has anything to do
with the problem.
