It's not a fix, it's an extension. The nested facility was not meant to
handle shared interrupts in the first place. I really hope that hardware
folks finally understand that irq sharing is crap and broken...

This is wrong. See how __handle_irq_event_percpu() does this. But no need
to resend. See:
