Thanks for the patch! I have also found a reproducer on Linux 5.13 so it
was easier to confirm the patch works.
The reproducer is continuously the affinity of the interrupt under high
interrupt load. After a few seconds I can see dozen of WARN splat.
Regarding the patch itself, a few suggestions:
1) It is not entirely obvious from the code why ack_mask_dynirq() is
not modified. My understanding is we are assuming that the
xen_irq_lateeoi_locked() will not be called in this case. I would
suggest to spell it clearly in the commit message
2) I would suggest to add a comment in the code explaining why
event_handler_exit() is not used. It is probably worth to also add one
in event_handler_exit() so one know that this doesn't cover all the paths.
Cheers,
