pci_epf_test_enable_doorbell() allocates a doorbell and then installs
the interrupt handler with request_threaded_irq(). On failures before
the IRQ is successfully requested (e.g. no free BAR,
request_threaded_irq() failure), the error path jumps to
err_doorbell_cleanup and calls pci_epf_test_doorbell_cleanup().
pci_epf_test_doorbell_cleanup() unconditionally calls free_irq() for the
doorbell virq, which can trigger "Trying to free already-free IRQ"
warnings when the IRQ was never requested.
Track whether the doorbell IRQ has been successfully requested and only
call free_irq() when it has.

Prevous patch clean up epf->num_db = 0 at doorbell_free(). can you check
epf->num_db ?

I don't think so. epf->num_db tracks how many dbs were allocated, but it
doesn't tell whether request_irq() actually succeeded. What I'm fixing here
is the case where the db allocation succeeeds (or was already done), but
the request_irq() fails. In that case we must not call free_irq(), even
though num_db is non-zero. That's why I introduced a separate
db_irq_requested flag.
Thanks for the review,
