Sorry, IRQ routing to PIC and IOAPIC is actually not a property of the
PIIX3 but the board we emulate. And here we follow the Multiprocessor
Specification of Intel and route ISA bus IRQs to both interrupt
controllers. Thus the bus must be connected to the GSIs. And, again,
GSI[16..13] aren't referenced by the ISA bus at any time.
