Re: 2.4 PATCH: Fix acpi for bigsur

I reproduced that problem, and applied the following patch for 2.4
(this is what we had in 2.4.21, prior to the big ACPI update in 2.4).

Andy, can you apply this to ACPI?  It's needed for both 2.4 and 2.5
ia64 kernels.  The problem is that on machines with an 8259, the
SCI interrupt might be a legacy ISA IRQ, not a GSI.

I'm not thrilled about the name "acpi_irq_to_vector".  Something
like "acpi_interrupt_to_irq" seems like it would fit the usage better.
Suggestions?

Bjorn
