Will do.

The device gets used in PIIX4 as well, i.e. MIPS, too. I therefore think it is 
not x86 but rather PIC specific. I propose to move it back to hw/intc/i8259 
where it was implemented until v2: 
https://patchew.org/QEMU/20221022150508.26830-1-shen...@gmail.com/20221022150508.26830-15-shen...@gmail.com/
 . I can also rename the device back to isa-pic to make things more obvious.

What do you think?

Best regards,
Bernhard
