That's a merge commit (AFAIK, maybe not so much). The commit in mainline is:

commit f977f4c9301c
Author: Niklas Neronin <niklas.neronin@...ux.intel.com>
Date:   Fri Dec 1 17:06:40 2023 +0200

    xhci: add handler for only one interrupt line

Thomas, would you look at this, please?

A network device and xhci (USB) driver are now sharing interrupts.
This causes a large performance decrease for the networking device.
