Hello!
I'm using Linux 2.4.19-rc1 with pcmcia-cs 3.1.34 on EM-350A system
(http://www.voxtechnologies.com/Embedded_Platforms/em-350a.htm) with Cyrix
MediaGX. CONFIG_PCMCIA is disabled, so the drivers come from pcmcia-cs.
Every time the i82365 driver is loaded, the following message appears in
the kernel log:
Intel ISA/PCI/CardBus PCIC probe:
PCI: Found IRQ 11 for device 00:11.0
IRQ routing conflict for 00:11.0, have irq 15, want irq 11
PCI: Found IRQ 15 for device 00:11.1
IRQ routing conflict for 00:11.1, have irq 11, want irq 15
It happens regardless of whether I'm using CONFIG_PCI_GOBIOS or
CONFIG_PCI_GODIRECT in the kernel config.
My understanding is that the first number comes from the PCI config space,
whereas the second number comes from pirq_cyrix_get(), a Cyrix specific
function that accesses the routing registers. The later numbers are
ignored if there is a conflict.
I have found that the following patch fixes this warning. I don't know if
it's correct. The reason for the warning may be a hardware bug, but I'll
post it anyway so that poeple with the documentation for Cyrix could
recheck this code.

======================================
The existing code uses the upper nibble in the same byte for lower pirq,
but it seems that we should start with the lower nibble for EM-350A.
When using PCI interrupts in the i82365 driver (parameter irq_mode=0), all
PCMCIA cards work properly and generate interrupts, with and without the
above patch.
The fix in the latest beta of pcmcia-cs has no effect on 2.4.x kernels.
It implements exactly the same logic, which is used in 2.4.x kernels
(upper nibble first).
