A GSI event ring causes an event control interrupt to fire whenever its state changes (between NOT_ALLOCATED and ALLOCATED). No event ring should ever change state except when we request it to. Currently, we permit *all* events rings to generate event control interrupts--even those that are never used. And we enable event control interrupts essentially at all times, from setup to teardown. Instead, only enable the event control interrupt type for the duration of an event ring command, and when doing so, only allow the event ring being operated upon to cause the interrupt to fire. Disallow all event rings from issuing the event control interrupt in gsi_irq_setup(). Because an event ring's interrupt is only enabled when needed, there is no longer any need to zero the event channel mask in gsi_irq_disable().

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
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.
