And the saga continues...

'lspci -vb' does not understand IO-APIC mode, as best I can tell, so the 
interrupt number that it reports is totally useless.

On my desktop machine, with an nVidia graphics card in a PCI-Express 
slot, /proc/interrupts shows it using interrupt 185, and 'lspci -vb' 
shows it using IRQ 10. It is most definitely _not_ on IRQ 10, since 
/proc/interrupts show the actual mapping from the IRQ controller (the 
APIC) to the driver servicing the device.

At best, 'lspci -vb' is showing what interrupt the device was on 
_before_ the kernel reassigned it using APIC mode.
