ok, i see the 1250, 1450 are different. the 1410/1520 doc says nothing about it.
did i miss something about the 1410/1520/etc ?

TI calls it Multifunction Routing Register for a reason :)

so i think the safe way would be:
- move routing code to 12xx_override()
- first test interrupts, do nothing if working correct
- try to reflect the settings in device control register, test again
- fall back to pci if nothing works
- handle the 125x/1450 by not touching MFUNC0
- don't do INTB routing, set INTRTIE instead (on 2 slot chips)
(- remove the bad code from 2.4 and do the same)
