Apparently it's broken in the exact same way as the gmbus irq. For

drm/i915: stop using GMBUS IRQs on Gen4 chips
The effect is that we have a storm of unclaimed interrupts on the
legacy irq line. If that one is used by a different device then the
kernel will complain and rather quickly kill the irq source. Which
breaks any device trying to actually use the legacy irq line.
This regression has been introduced

drm/i915: dp aux irq support for g4x/vlv
Note that disabling MSI works around the issue, but we can't do that
since apparently then the hw will miss interrupts. At least if
relevant comments in i915_irq.c are accurate.
v2: Cross-reference dp aux and gmbus gen4 comments.
v3: Consolidate harder into i915_drv.h as suggested by Chris.
