: That's not what it means.  The 'BIOS IRQ' bit means that it read IRQ 11 
: out of the intlin register because the BIOS put it there, but the BIOS 
: value seems invalid.  I have a patch to make the PIR code trust the 
: BIOS in this case over the $PIR table that you can test if you want.  
: Actually, I committed the patch finally a while ago.  It is rev 1.117

That makes some sense.  The device probes at 10, but if it really
should be 11, then that would explain it all.
