Hi Marc,
JFYI, we're still testing this and the patch itself seems to work as
intended.
Here's the kernel log if you just want to see how the interrupts are
getting assigned:

For me, I did get a performance boost for NVMe testing, but my colleague
Xiang Chen saw a drop for our storage test of interest - that's the
HiSi SAS controller. We're trying to make sense of it now.
Thanks,
John
