There is not a difference in the hardware interrupt numbers being 
claimed by GENET which are both GIC interrupts 189 and 190 (157 + 32 and 
158 + 32). In the broken case we can see that the second interrupt line 
(interrupt 190), which is the one that services the non-default TX 
queues does not fire up at all whereas it does in the patched case.

The transmit queue timeout makes sense given that transmit queue 2 
(which is not the default one, default is 0) has its interrupt serviced 
by the second interrupt line (190). We can see it not firing up, hence 
the timeout.

What I *think* might be happening here is the following:

- priv->wol_irq = platform_get_irq_optional(pdev, 2) returns a negative 
error code we do not install the interrupt handler for the WoL interrupt 
since it is not valid

- bcmgenet_set_wol() is called, we do not check priv->wol_irq, so we 
call enable_irq_wake(priv->wol_irq) and somehow irq_set_irq_wake() is 
able to resolve that irq number to a valid interrupt descriptor

- eventually we just mess up the interrupt descriptor for interrupt 49 
and it stops working

Now since this appears to be an ACPI-enabled system, we may be hitting 
this part of the code in platform_get_irq_optional():

           r = platform_get_resource(dev, IORESOURCE_IRQ, num);
           if (has_acpi_companion(&dev->dev)) {
                   if (r && r->flags & IORESOURCE_DISABLED) {
                           ret = acpi_irq_get(ACPI_HANDLE(&dev->dev), 
num, r);
                           if (ret)
                                   goto out;
                   }
           }

and then I am not clear what interrupt this translates into here, or 
whether it is possible to get a valid interrupt descriptor here.

The patch is fine in itself, but I would really prefer that we get to 
the bottom of this rather than have a superficial understanding of the 
nature of the problem.

Thanks for providing these dumps.
