Hi Stephen,
The idea to move the ownership check to irq_request_resources sounds 
good.
I am dropping this patch and sent the new patch to move the irq 
ownership to
irq_request_resource. Following is the patchwork link.

Shawn, can you please give a try with it?

With the new patch series these errors will go away, as we are removing 
the ownership
checks from the read/write path.
