   1. hvc console not working on 4.4.0 guest (M A Young)

I am testing Fedora rawhide in a xen pv guest and I get the error
[    9.809550] genirq: Flags mismatch irq 8. 00000000 (hvc_console) vs.
00000000 (rtc0)
[    9.809714] hvc_open: request_irq failed with rc -16.
during the boot and the hvc console doesn't respond when the boot
finishes. I have noticed this I think since the update through various
linux 4.4.0 kernels up to the current 4.4.0-0.rc5.git3.1.fc24.x86_64 one. I do get an hvc console if I use the Fedora 23 kernel 4.2.6-300.fc23.x86_64
from before the update.
Is this a known problem? I have attached the boot log up to the above
error.

Hi Michael,

Yes it's a known problem, the patch for it was just accepted into the tip tree:

https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip.git/commit/?h=x86/urgent&id=d8c98a1d1488747625ad6044d423406e17e99b7a

So it will land in 4.4-final, the 2 patches causing this regression were unfortunately also already backported to the stable trees (despite objection), but hopefully the fix wil also hit stable in the next round.
