Most driver use free_irq after register actions, I found this problem by a test
case.
But if this problem happen and the same DeviceID & EventID are reused,
the freed ITT will be visit which cause delayed kernel panic,
the prev INTs are triggered unexpected, but the new INTs lost.
So I think this check spend less, but gains more.
