I can split the initialized bit. If I remove it from this commit, it can
break the git bisect. That's why, I folded it into this review. I
briefly mentioned about it in the cover letter. It might not be quiet
clear.

I'm directing all IRQs to  acpi_irq_pci_sharing_penalty function. 
acpi_irq_pci_sharing_penalty checks for the possible values here from
_PRS.

/*
 * penalize the IRQs PCI might use, but not as severely.
 */
for (i = 0; i < link->irq.possible_count; i++)
	if (link->irq.possible[i] == irq)
		penalty += PIRQ_PENALTY_PCI_POSSIBLE /
			link->irq.possible_count;

It does fix the PCI_USING penalty assignment. 

                if (link->irq.active && link->irq.active == irq)
                         penalty += PIRQ_PENALTY_PCI_USING;


If we drop this patch, then we need
[PATCH V3 1/3] ACPI, PCI IRQ: add PCI_USING penalty for ISA interrupts

http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/linux/kernel/2547605

as somebody needs to increment the penalty with PCI_USING when IRQ is assigned
for a given ISA IRQ.

We might as well take [PATCH V4 1/3], [PATCH V4 2/3] and [PATCH V3 1/3]
for this regression.
