Interesting he has ISA irqs on bus #10 on the same apic id and pin as
pci irqs.  Blink.  I had missed we had that print out.

The immediate issue are these lines:

Which get the apic id wrong, and thus cause us to mishandle them and
get 

You are right Dave's mptable does the  arguably broken:

Where busses 0,1,5,6,7,8,9 result in level triggered interrupts and
bus 0x0a results in an edge triggered interrupt.

As I read the code.  First we will do a generic isa setup, marking the
interrupt ioapic table entry edge triggered.  Then we will do a pci
setup for any pin we use as pci, and then we will set pin_programmed
stopping us from updating the pin any more, during setup.

For the common case I think we still do the right thing, even now, for
these broken bios tables.  There is likely an uncommon case for which
something like your shared_legacy_irq deserves to be used, especially
at it preserves our well tested historical behavior.
