[PATCH,RFC] quirks for VIA VT8237 southbridge

From: Karsten Wiese
Date: Sat Aug 13 2005 - 10:10:36 EST


Hi,

this fixes the 'doubled ioapic level interrupt rate' issue I've been
seeing on a K8T800/AMD64 mainboard.
It also switches off quirk_via_irq() for the VT8237 southbridge.

As both changes are uncritical fixes, I'll post a real patch to -mm
in a week or so.

Karsten
