Yes, I think this looks good.

children to allocate and setup interrupts through isab; any pointers to what
needs to be done in that regard are also very welcome since I'm not having
much luck with it so far...
Well, it depends on where the interrupts come from. Is your device's
interrupt actually tied to the INTx line or an MSI or MSI-X message on the ISA
bridge? If so it will need to allocate the resource from the isab device. If
your device is just using an ISA IRQ then you will probably need to use hints
or some other method for figuring out which ISA IRQ your device is using.
