When a vdevice is DLPAR removed from the system the vio subsystem doesn't bother unmapping the virq from the irq_domain. As a result we have a virq mapped to a hardware irq that is no longer valid for the irq_domain. A side effect is that we are left with /proc/irq/<irq#> affinity entries, and attempts to modify the smp_affinity of the irq will fail. In the following observed example the kernel log is spammed by ics_rtas_set_affinity errors after the removal of a VSCSI adapter. This is a result of irqbalance trying to adjust the affinity every 10 seconds. rpadlpar_io: slot U8408.E8E.10A7ACV-V5-C25 removed ics_rtas_set_affinity: ibm,set-xive irq=655385 returns -3 ics_rtas_set_affinity: ibm,set-xive irq=655385 returns -3 This patch fixes the issue by calling irq_dispose_mapping() on the virq of the viodev on unregister.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
