You need to check if dev==NULL and bail out.
Another driver sharing the IRQ with this might choose to pass the dev
pointer as NULL.

NAK that advice: It is pointless having such a check in the hottest of driver hot paths, since a large majority of drivers do not have such a check.

It is better to fix the extremely rare oddball that passes NULL to request_irq(), than to update all drivers to be slower due to the oddballs.

No check if the device actually _did_ generate the IRQ? Sharing...

Not for MSI


+static irqreturn_t bnx2x_msix_fp_int(int irq, void *fp_cookie)
+{
+
+       struct bnx2x_fastpath *fp = fp_cookie;

Check if fp==NULL

NAK

+       struct bnx2x *bp = fp->bp;
+       struct net_device *dev = bp->dev;

No share protection either?

MSI


+static irqreturn_t bnx2x_interrupt(int irq, void *dev_instance)
+{
+       struct net_device *dev = dev_instance;

Check if dev==NULL

NAK


+       struct bnx2x *bp = netdev_priv(dev);
+       u16 status = bnx2x_ack_int(bp);
+
+       if (unlikely(status == 0)) {

That's not unlikely.

in this case, agreed

the other comments seem fairly sane, and indeed should be considered for the existing drivers as well.
