In theory yes, in practice no. The aic7xxx is a high-performance,
time-critical driver. If you make it share an IRQ, then it loses a
certain amount of control to its brother drivers. This is especially
annoying with motherboards which have both embedded aic7xx and Ethernet
hardware on board, as these usually try to share a single IRQ.
