It becomes the driver writer's problem as soon as the people writing the
machine integration start e-mailing saying that the driver is buggy
because they've not set this stuff up for the driver, it not being
something that they'd expect to have to do for any other interrupt in
their system.

This isn't such an issue in the PC world there's relatively few people
doing the platform development but in the embedded space that's not the
case - there are vastly more people doing platform development since
essentially everyone building a new device has to do some.
