Subject: Re: [Patch V3 00/16] Enable support of IOAPIC hotplug on x86 platforms

Hi Konrad,
	Thanks for testing the patch set! After analyzing the log
files, I feel something is wrong with the Radeon driver. With good
configuration, IRQ18 is shared by OHCI controllers and Radeon GPU
card. With bad configuration, only OHCI controllers are bound to
IRQ18. Radeon GPU card may have been bound to another wrong IRQ,
which then causes the interrupt storm.
	But I have no hardware available to verify the hypothesis,
so could you please help to apply the attached patch and run the
test again?
	Thanks!
	Gerry
