Agreed. That is just where I pointed out on my email replied for OOPS. To enable
DBG to figure out 'src' and 'mpic->irq_count' from the file,
arch/powerpc/sysdev/mpic.c,    .
======
int mpic_set_irq_type(unsigned int virq, unsigned int flow_type)
{
	......
	if (src >= mpic->irq_count)
		return -EINVAL;
			^
			I think this OOPS may be from here.
