I should add that these changes have been tested on the Assabet (SA1110)
and Assabet with Neponset daughter board (SA1111) platforms with a CF
network card and a PCMCIA wireless card.

There are a couple of bugs in genirq which stop both the original code,
and these updates from working correctly.  These changes in itself do
not cause a regression as a result of that.  This is in the hands of
the genirq people to resolve as it's a regression - this code worked
100% with the ARM IRQ layer, which was part of the basis for genirq.
