Could it be that this is just a bug in `request_nmi`? I see the following:

if (!desc || (irq_settings_can_autoenable(desc) &&
    !(irqflags & IRQF_NO_AUTOEN)) ||
    !irq_settings_can_request(desc) ||
    WARN_ON(irq_settings_is_per_cpu_devid(desc)) ||
    !irq_supports_nmi(desc))
	return -EINVAL;

Perhaps there is just a missing `!` before `irq_settings_can_autoenable`.

As far as I can tell it has always been wrong - git blame points me to the
original commit where that code was introduced:

b525903c254da ("genirq: Provide basic NMI management for interrupt lines")

I looked and the only two callers are using `IRQF_NO_AUTOEN` so I guess it
just hasn't been noticed yet.

Happy to send a patch to fix it.
