This patch is fine with me as long as the FW/HW people can confirm that calling spurrious EOI's like that will not affect other interrupts. The side effect of writing 0xff to the xirr should be irrelevant as long as this is not done from within a HW interrupt handler (timer interrupts or softirqs are fine). Due to the already incestuous relationship between HCA and the hypervisor, I don't mind having the H call directly in the driver. So as long as the FW/HW people are ok with that workaround, then it has my ack as well.
