On the other hand interrupt remapping is absolutely necessary for
production use, hence my point that x86 does not promise API stability.
("Any kind of stability" actually didn't include crashes; those are not
expected :))
The Google patches for userspace PIC and IOAPIC are proceeding well, so
hopefully we can have interrupt remapping soon.
