git blame says this line was put there by the IRQ subsystem maintainer
Thomas Gleixner.

I feel very nervous about removing that, and you need a better explanation
what is causing the problem and how in the commit.

Like I want to know for sure that the problem is not triggered from
somewhere else.

Please write how and where you export this to trigger the error.

Yours,
