x86: don't allow nr_irqs > NR_IRQS
Impact: fix boot hang on 32-bit systems with more than 224 IO-APIC pins On some 32-bit systems with a lot of IO-APICs probe_nr_irqs() can return a value larger than NR_IRQS. This will lead to probe_irq_on() overrunning the irq_desc array. I hit this when running net-next-2.6 (close to 2.6.28-rc3) on a Supermicro dual Xeon system. NR_IRQS is 224 but probe_nr_irqs() detects 5 IOAPICs and returns 240. Here are the log messages: Tue Nov 4 16:53:47 2008 ACPI: IOAPIC (id[0x01] address[0xfec00000] gsi_base[0]) Tue Nov 4 16:53:47 2008 IOAPIC[0]: apic_id 1, version 32, address 0xfec00000, GSI 0-23 Tue Nov 4 16:53:47 2008 ACPI: IOAPIC (id[0x02] address[0xfec81000] gsi_base[24]) Tue Nov 4 16:53:47 2008 IOAPIC[1]: apic_id 2, version 32, address 0xfec81000, GSI 24-47 Tue Nov 4 16:53:47 2008 ACPI: IOAPIC (id[0x03] address[0xfec81400] gsi_base[48]) Tue Nov 4 16:53:47 2008 IOAPIC[2]: apic_id 3, version 32, address 0xfec81400, GSI 48-71 Tue Nov 4 16:53:47 2008 ACPI: IOAPIC (id[0x04] address[0xfec82000] gsi_base[72]) Tue Nov 4 16:53:47 2008 IOAPIC[3]: apic_id 4, version 32, address 0xfec82000, GSI 72-95 Tue Nov 4 16:53:47 2008 ACPI: IOAPIC (id[0x05] address[0xfec82400] gsi_base[96]) Tue Nov 4 16:53:47 2008 IOAPIC[4]: apic_id 5, version 32, address 0xfec82400, GSI 96-119 Tue Nov 4 16:53:47 2008 ACPI: INT_SRC_OVR (bus 0 bus_irq 0 global_irq 2 high edge) Tue Nov 4 16:53:47 2008 ACPI: INT_SRC_OVR (bus 0 bus_irq 9 global_irq 9 high level) Tue Nov 4 16:53:47 2008 Enabling APIC mode: Flat.
