I am slowly looking into introducing generic IRQ support for SPARC. If I succeed then we will shift to a more dynamic numbering of interrupts - like sparc64 does. Right now I am in a situation where I try to analyse SPARC, existing codebase and genirq in the kernel. So it will take a while before I get anywhere with this.
