Please don't. It's very hard without understanding the interrupt routing
details of the board. It is easier to let the PCI BIOS handle this.

Again, the PCI BIOS knows this and the PCI BIOS is specific to the boards.
Alpha, because it has no PCI BIOS, has to have interrupt routing tables, one
per supported system and do PCI fixups (in arch/alpha/kernel/bios32.c). This
would be unsupportable for Intel based systems, it's bad enough having a dozen
Alpha systems around...
