I agree with you Bjorn and I also agree that this fix does not
explain what the problem really is so it is not actually fixing
anything.

That's my understanding too and pci_assign_irq() should have been called
for dev1 (and failed) by then, why calling it again succeeds is not
clear to me.

There is something I am missing here which is not obvious, I need
more data to debug this, I will try to replicate Guenter's setup.

Thanks,
