Thanks, It looks like the imbalance is in pci_dev->enable_cnt. Any call to pci_disable_device() will clear pci_dev->irq, but pci_enable_device() does effectively nothing unless it's called with enable_cnt == zero. So I'm at the mercy of the previous driver behaving relatively sanely in order to re-enable legacy interrupts for a device :-\ Maybe the unbound notifier needs to do some sanitizing of the device?
