No.  Sharing PCI interrupts is quite normal.

With a standard PC you can try to improve things by moving PCI cards to 
different
PCI slots, trying to reduce the PCI interrupt line sharing.  But with a loptop 
this kind
of "fix" is impossible.

You can use the following commands to print a list of the running system's 
interrupt
vector table, and which drivers are using shared interrupt vectors:

    echo ::interrupts | mdb -k
    echo ::interrupts -d | mdb -k
