It sounds like either V3 1/3 or V4 3/3 will fix the regression.  The
V3 1/3 patch is much smaller and essentially makes this piece look
like it did in v4.6.

The V4 3/3 patch removes acpi_irq_penalty_init() and compensates by
using acpi_irq_pci_sharing_penalty() for ISA IRQs again.  But
acpi_irq_penalty_init() added PIRQ_PENALTY_PCI_POSSIBLE for _CRS, and
only if there was no _PRS, while acpi_irq_pci_sharing_penalty() always
adds PIRQ_PENALTY_PCI_USING for _CRS, regardless of whether _PRS
exists.

Since V4 3/3 is so much bigger and makes this quite subtle change in
how _CRS is handled, I like V3 1/3 better.

Are we all set to go now?  I think I've acked the patches you
mentioned.
