So this is potentially a problem. As I read this, we just changed the default.
So a device that has been relying on this 'bug' for a long time will now
not work as it will be expecting the interrupt on the wrong physical pin.

So, whilst it might seem logical to let the device stay with it's default
we can't do it because the defacto Linux default is the other choice.

The delights of having to support old 'bugs' :)
