desc new mask_var (allocated) aka the pointer is overwritten here...
you may need to calling move init_alloc_desc_masks() into
init_copy_one_irq_desc()

Wouldn't this in init_copy_one_irq_desc() take care  of that?

where:

static inline void init_copy_desc_masks(struct irq_desc *old_desc,
                                        struct irq_desc *new_desc)

#ifdef CONFIG_CPUMASKS_OFFSTACK
        cpumask_copy(new_desc->affinity, old_desc->affinity);

#ifdef CONFIG_GENERIC_PENDING_IRQ
        cpumask_copy(new_desc->pending_mask, old_desc->pending_mask);
#endif
#endif
}

In other words if the masks are not a cpumask[1] but instead a
*cpumask pointer, then the old masks are copied to the new desc/

Or am I missing your point?

Thanks!
Mike
