Yes, of course! I don't know how I missed it!

Err...

What is it?

Seriously, I removed piix3_get_pin as soon as I noticed it wasn't
actually used, but I am not convinced that there are no aliasing
issues remaining with piix_get_irq---most likely because I do not
understand PCI interrupt routing to any sufficient degree. Do you see
problems remaining with pixx_get_irq?

Cheers,
