This will shift the issue from PXA_SSP3 interrupt to ISA IRQ0.
On the other hand ISA IRQs are used only on viper and zeus boards.
And those boards explicitly mark IRQ0 as unused (because it is not
routed through CPLD).

I have another question. As for me, those "ISA" interrupts being placed
in front of PXA interrupts look like some kind of legacy stuff. Do we
still require for "ISA" (well, PC/104) interrupts to be the first ones?
