[PATCH] ACPI pci irq routing fix

[PATCH] ACPI pci irq routing fix

[Chris Wright]

If irq.active is set from _CRS, make sure to use it, rather than trying
anything from the from the _PRS list, as some machines don't handle this
properly.  This patch is against current linux-acpi-test-2.6.0.  It's
been floating about for a while, and fixes bug #1186.

Patch originally from Andrew de Quincey.

thanks,
-chris

This fix has been integrated with others in the ACPI patch,
and is available now in these bitkeeper trees:

http://linux-acpi.bkbits.net/linux-acpi-test-2.4.22
http://linux-acpi.bkbits.net/linux-acpi-test-2.4.23
http://linux-acpi.bkbits.net/linux-acpi-test-2.6.0

It is also available as a plain patch "acpi_pci_link_allocate" here:
