"Did we miss an interrupt" mean?

Question:
We are testing NVMe cards on ARM64 platform, the card uses legacy interrupts.
Intermittently we are hitting following case in nvme_timeout of drivers/nvme/host/pci.c
/*
* Did we miss an interrupt?
*/
if (__nvme_poll(nvmeq, req->tag)) {
dev_warn(dev->ctrl.device,
"I/O %d QID %d timeout, completion polled\n",
req->tag, nvmeq->qid);
return BLK_EH_HANDLED;
}
Can anyone tell when does nvme_timeout gets invoked ?
