Right now we have IRQs 5,10,11 for PCI.  Having one more IRQ (so we
have one for each link) would be useful IMHO.  eight links + eight
irqs would be even more useful.  What needs to be done for that?

Current code uses piix3 irq router to route pci interrupts to pic _and_
ioapic and piix3 irq router supports only 16 interrupts.

That means? We could add four more PCI links which have IRQs routed through another IRQ router chip and link them to ioapic lines 17-23 that way? Or does it mean we must emulate a more recent chipset?

cheers,
