Passing pdev as the data is a good idea for practically no device driver.

It's rare to actually want the pci_device down in the interrupt handler;
normally you want the device private data. Using pci_get_drvdata(pdev)
as the data would make sense for both sym2 and tg3. I don't feel like
Using pci_get_drvdata() is a pretty good idea
int pci_request_irq(struct pci_dev *pdev, irq_handler_t handler,
const char *name)
{
if (!valid_irq(pdev->irq)) {
dev_printk(KERN_ERR, &pdev->dev, "invalid irq\n");
return -EINVAL;
}
return request_irq(pdev->irq, handler, IRQF_SHARED, name,
pci_get_drvdata(pdev));
}
But what about IRQF_SAMPLE_RANDOM?
I still like having a flags argument though. It's enough of an open
question, and I bet there will be a new flag or two in the future that
PCI drivers will want to use.
