[PATCH] ACPI SCI interrupt source override

[Kimball Murray <kimball.murray@gmail.com>]

This is a repost of a patch sent to linux-acpi a few months ago.  Casting it
out to a wider audience now.

The Linux group at Stratus Technologies has come across an
issue with SCI routing under ACPI.  We were bitten by this when we made an
x86_64 platform whose BIOS provides an Interrupt Source Override for the SCI
itself.  Apparently the override has no effect for the System Control
Interrupt, and this appears to be because of the way the SCI is setup
in the ACPI code.  It does not handle the case where busirq != gsi.

The code that sets up the SCI routing assumes that bus irq == global irq.
So there is simply no provision for telling it otherwise.  The attached patch
provides this mechanism.

This patch provided by David Bulkow, was tested on an i386 platform,
which does not use the SCI override, and also on an x86_64 platform which
does use an override.

This patch was generated against Linus' git tree.
