So the interrupts do not reach the CPU. The interrupt storm (on the CPU) starts as soon as some driver that shares the interrupt with b43 requests and thus enables the interrupt. And that always happens after the PCI fixup. Thus this is safe. -- Michael -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
