I added IORESOURCE_IRQ_SHAREABLE recently:
  http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commitdiff;h=c32928c579d88acd43981b59e86900da65f40762

and I just didn't notice these places at the time.  If I had,
I would have made this change then.  It's possible we could
trip over a BIOS issue, but I don't *think* that's why it's
been this way in the past.
