Hi :)

I'm not familiar with Linux, but naive as I'm, I guess it doesn't matter
if there are two unneeded devices having an interrupt. When the
interrupt is requested a rout check some IO registers, if they will send
something, and because they won't and nothing will be send that the
devices has to receive, the rout returns. That might be some cycles,
that won't have any impact on the performance. Am I wrong?

Cheers,
Ralf
