Yes that did it, on my small system it looked just right:

<7>IRQ to pin mappings:
<7>IRQ0 -> 0:2
<7>IRQ1 -> 0:1
<7>IRQ3 -> 0:3
<7>IRQ4 -> 0:4
<7>IRQ5 -> 0:5
<7>IRQ6 -> 0:6
<7>IRQ7 -> 0:7
<7>IRQ8 -> 0:8
<7>IRQ9 -> 0:9
<7>IRQ10 -> 0:10
<7>IRQ11 -> 0:11
<7>IRQ12 -> 0:12
<7>IRQ14 -> 0:14
<7>IRQ15 -> 0:15
<7>IRQ16 -> 0:16
<7>IRQ17 -> 0:17
<7>IRQ18 -> 0:18
<7>IRQ19 -> 0:19
<7>IRQ20 -> 0:20
<7>IRQ21 -> 0:23
<7>IRQ22 -> 1:2
<7>IRQ23 -> 1:3
<7>IRQ24 -> 1:4
<7>IRQ25 -> 1:5
<7>IRQ26 -> 2:0
<7>IRQ27 -> 2:1
<7>IRQ28 -> 2:2
<7>IRQ29 -> 2:3
<7>IRQ30 -> 2:4
<7>IRQ31 -> 2:5
<7>IRQ32 -> 2:6
<7>IRQ33 -> 2:7
<7>IRQ34 -> 2:8

Looks good! I will try the patch also on the ES7000 hopefully big enough
to exercise some vector sharing.
