[Linux-parport] [RFC] IRQ sharing for PCI parport cards

Hello,

currently, the parport_pc driver doesn't use IRQs automatically for
PCI devices. However, why is it not possible? It's no problem to find
out the corresponding IRQ, and it should also be possible to use IRQ
sharing. The following patch implements this.

Could somebody tell me what's wrong with that approach? _If_ it would
be that simple, I'm sure that sombody would have implemented this
already.

At least it works here.


Thanks,
   Bernhard
