This appears to be causing a NULL pointer dereference on
beaglebone-black, it got bisected automatically several times.
None of the other platforms in the KernelCI labs appears to be
affected.

Here's the error in the full job log, with next-20200923:

https://storage.staging.kernelci.org/kernelci/staging.kernelci.org/staging-20200924.0/arm/multi_v7_defconfig/gcc-8/lab-baylibre/baseline-beaglebone-black.html#L460

and some meta-data:

https://staging.kernelci.org/test/case/id/5f6bea67f724eb1b34dce584/

The full bisection report is available here:

https://groups.io/g/kernelci-results-staging/message/2094

I've also run it again with a debug build to locate the problem,
see below.

It looks like irq_desc_get_irq() gets called with a NULL
pointer (well, 0x0000001c):

(gdb) l *0xc030ef38
0xc030ef38 is in show_ipi_list (../include/linux/irqdesc.h:123).
118 return container_of(data->common, struct irq_desc, irq_common_data);
119 }
120
121 static inline unsigned int irq_desc_get_irq(struct irq_desc *desc)
122 {
123 return desc->irq_data.irq;
124 }
125
126 static inline struct irq_data *irq_desc_get_irq_data(struct irq_desc *desc)
127 {

I haven't looked any further but hopefully this should be a good
enough clue to find the root cause. I don't know if you have a
platform at hand to reproduce the issue, please let me know if
you need some help with debugging or testing a fix.

Hope this helps,
Guillaume
