Pull irq fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
"A set of fixes for PCI/MSI and x86 interrupt startup:
- Mask all MSI-X entries when enabling MSI-X otherwise stale unmasked
entries stay around e.g. when a crashkernel is booted.
- Enforce masking of a MSI-X table entry when updating it, which
mandatory according to speification
- Ensure that writes to MSI[-X} tables are flushed.
- Prevent invalid bits being set in the MSI mask register
- Properly serialize modifications to the mask cache and the mask
register for multi-MSI.
- Cure the violation of the affinity setting rules on X86 during
interrupt startup which can cause lost and stale interrupts. Move
the initial affinity setting ahead of actualy enabling the
interrupt.
- Ensure that MSI interrupts are completely torn down before freeing
them in the error handling case.
- Prevent an array out of bounds access in the irq timings code"

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
