Linus, I saw that Marcelo merged Alan bits to fix the IRQ routing with the
newest SiS ISA bridges. To make it really short the ISA bridge inside the
SiS 85C503/5513 issue IRQ routing requests on 0x60, 0x61, 0x62 and 0x63
for the USB hosts and the current code does not handle them correctly.
2.6-test9 does not have those bits and the USB subsystem won't work w/out
that. Did Alan ever posted the patch for 2.6? If yes, did you simply miss
it or you have a particular reason to not merge it?
I really would like to remove the SiS IRQ patch from my to-apply-2.6
folder :)

Alan thought I should put SiS IRQ routing on the must-fix list.
Doesn't mean it has to go in before 2.6.0, but if its common
hardware and its in 2.4 without problems its probably a good idea.

Alan did not like my approach, so I'll let him post to Linus his work. If
he doesn't I'll post mine. The solution is trivial though and it works for
me as long as for many users that google'd about SiS+USB and asked me the
patch.

I generalised it to remove a ton of nasty 440GX hacks and also make the
code smaller by swapping a big table for little __init functions. I sent
akpm comments on it but I never did a 2.6 version directly. Its the same
code in both cases however.
Right now I have exams, which is why I'm reading email not revising ;)
