I ran into this as well and managed to bisect it to the following commit:

7d12e780e003f93433d49ce78cfedf4b4c52adc5 is first bad commit
commit 7d12e780e003f93433d49ce78cfedf4b4c52adc5
Author: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>
Date:   Thu Oct 5 14:55:46 2006 +0100

    IRQ: Maintain regs pointer globally rather than passing to IRQ handlers
