Sure, e.g. in the patches I posted yesterday (not IRQ-related but
you can do that the same way):
static void __init gmlr_setup_nec(struct pci_dev *dev)
{
...
}
DECLARE_PCI_FIXUP_HEADER(PCI_VENDOR_ID_NEC, PCI_DEVICE_ID_NEC_USB,
gmlr_setup_nec);
Or:
static int __init gmlr_pci_init(void)
{
if (!machine_is_goramo_mlr())
return 0;
pci_common_init(&gmlr_hw_pci);
if (xxx) {
/* need to adjust number of USB ports on NEC chip */
u32 value, addr = BIT(32 - SLOT_NEC) | 0xE0;
if (!ixp4xx_pci_read(addr, NP_CMD_CONFIGREAD, &value)) {
value &= ~7;
value |= (hw_bits & CONFIG_HW_USB_PORTS);
ixp4xx_pci_write(addr, NP_CMD_CONFIGWRITE, value);
}
}
}

Non-DMA flash, I had issues with those and a VIA-based card.

Right. This means either the driver hasn't prepared the chip completely
(perhaps there is some exception which isn't normally signalled?) or
it's the other chip asking for interrupt.

(it's ath9k and not ath5k as I previously thought).
That means that both drivers (IRQ handlers) don't recognize the IRQ
source. So either one of the drivers is very seriously broken (which
I find hard to believe) or one of the chips generates an IRQ which isn't
normally used (thus not checked for).
But I would try to use a DMA-able CF first, perhaps it's the CF IRQ?
And/or try to boot without the CF.
