pci devices can have a shared interrupt line. That's definitely the case
for legacy pci, and I guess carries over to pcie. msi/msi-x interrupts
will give you dedicated interrupts, but it doesn't really hurt to mark
them as shared.

I guess I could rephrase to state:

"This is only used by drm_irq_install(), which is an optional helper.
For legacy pci devices this is required (due to interrupt sharing without
msi/msi-x), and just making this the default exactly matches the behaviour
of all existing drivers using the drm_irq_install() helpers. In case that
ever becomes wrong drivers can roll their own irq handling, as many
drivers already do (for other reasons like needing a threaded interrupt
handler, or having an entire pile of different interrupt sources)."

That better?
