This looks strange. What this patch does is just revert previous 
behavior, broken by d32932d02e18.
So we can try to test with last v4.1 stable, where retrigger callback 
were still present.

Also on v4.10 maybe check with software emulation of this feature and 
reverted patch, e.g.:

diff --git a/arch/x86/Kconfig b/arch/x86/Kconfig
index e487493..49c3c71 100644
--- a/arch/x86/Kconfig
+++ b/arch/x86/Kconfig
@@ -170,6 +170,7 @@ config X86
         select USER_STACKTRACE_SUPPORT
         select VIRT_TO_BUS
         select X86_FEATURE_NAMES                if PROC_FS
+       select HARDIRQS_SW_RESEND

  config INSTRUCTION_DECODER
         def_bool y

I think for further debugging logs will be needed.
