Why doesn't this also list 1d.0, 1d.3, and 02.0?

I get the feeling that somehow the devices using IRQ 10 have been divided 
into two sets: {02.0, 1d.0, 1d.3} and {1d.2, 1f.1}.  It's not clear 
whether this is related to your problem.

It's tempting to think this has something to do with the UHCI driver, 
since that's where the bad irq showed up.  But in fact it's unrelated.  
Some other device is generated interrupts on the same IRQ line, and the 
problem showed up the first time a driver (which just happened to be 
uhci-hcd) enabled that line.

The device generating the unwanted interrupts could be any of the other
ones connected to that IRQ line.  It's hard to say which, but maybe you
can find out by playing with BIOS settings.  For instance, you should make
sure that Legacy USB Support is disabled in the BIOS.  A BIOS update might
also help.

Another thing you can try is to boot with the "usb-handoff" boot 
parameter.
