Indeed.  I had skipped over this important detail when I was skimming
through the code.

Thanks for clarifying!

Is IRQF_ONESHOT really necessary for this device?  The primary handler
invokes sti_mbox_disable_channel() on the interrupting channel, which I
would hope would acquiesce the pending interrupt at the device-level?

Also, as written there are num_inst reads of STI_IRQ_VAL_OFFSET in the
primary handler, which seems inefficient...(unless of course reading
incurs side effects, here).
