Hi, 

I have a x86 system with Xeon CPU running Linux with preempt_rt patch (kernel 
version 4.14). 

When a PCI device firing interrupt to GSI 44 (ioapic2, pin20), I noticed that 
GSI 19 (ioapic1, pin19) will get fired as well, and then it went unhandled.
I can reproduce this issue by using another PCI card or swapping the PCI card 
to other slot, as long as the device is driving GSI 44.

By putting traces on do_IRQ, I can see it's being called once for GSI 44, then 
being called another once for GSI 19.

I tried to reproduce it on RHEL 8, it is not reproducible initially. However, 
after I added "threadirqs" kernel parameter, this behaviour appears on RHEL 8 
as well.

I would like to get your advice on whether this could be a kernel issue or 
hardware issue.
Inputs on how to further narrow down the issue are most welcomed.

Thanks very much in advance,
Kar Hin Ong
