Does this use the pirq tables or does it do something else?
As much as possible I would like to have a single source table so we
don't run into strange maintenance issues.

Assigning initial irqs, and reporting them in pci space is something
very much in the scope of LinuxBIOS.  It just hasn't come up much before
now so the code is not there yet...
