Subject: [PATCH 4.4 324/342] x86/irq: Validate that irq descriptor is still active

4.4-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@...utronix.de>

commit 36f34c8c63da3e272fd66f91089228c22d2b6e8b upstream.

In fixup_irqs() we unconditionally dereference the irq chip of an irq
descriptor. The descriptor might still be valid, but already cleaned up,
i.e. the chip removed. Add a check for this condition.
