Thanks to module reloading we can even reset the kernel's irq disabling logic and so test different tricks quickly without rebooting. Really useful.

Daniel, out of curiosity, have you been able to make some sense of the phantom legacy IRQs on GM45 systems, or are we just staying with my original bandaid (disabling GMBUS IRQs), declaring GM45 broken in this respect? Thanks,

I've played around with dummy-irq on my own gm45 and afaict every gmbus interrupt generates both an msi and a legacy pci interrupt when msi is enabled. Everything else (= other interrupt sources) seems to work as expected, and disabling msi also papers over the issue. There's also scary comments in our gm45 irq handler that we need msi to paper over some other races. So I've decided that I don't want to dwell any longer in this particular dungeon and that your bandaid (of just disabling this mess) is the real fix. Thanks, Daniel
