up to:  9f5deb551655: genirq: Fix software resend lockup and nested resend

A last minute fix for a regression introduced in the v6.5 merge window. The
conversion of the software based interrupt resend mechanism to hlist missed
to add a check whether the descriptor is already enqueued and dropped the
interrupt descriptor lookup for nested interrupts.

The missing check whether the descriptor is already queued causes hlist
corruption and can be observed in the wild. The dropped parent descriptor
lookup has not yet caused problems, but it would result in stale interrupt
line in the worst case.

Add the missing enqueued check and bring the descriptor lookup back to cure
this.

Thanks,

	tglx
