this is *obviousyl* wrong, it should never have been merged like that
and there are reports and complaints this causes problems for some
people

we should first attempt to get all the IDs (some are clearly missing
still, patch coming up to address that) and where that fails perhaps
have a kernel command-line parameter to be overly aggressive as a
stop-gap until we van figure out the proper solution

i'd also like to figure out why the quirk is needed/fails when people
are using ACPI for interrupt routing as presumbly that must work as
windows relies on it
