  Mbigen vector register and pin structure shows as below:

	event id       0      1     2          127
    vector register    reg0  reg1  reg2       reg127
			|     |     |           |
	  MBIGEN	pin0  pin1  pin2  ...  pin127
         		|-----|-----|-----|-----|
			|     |     |     |     |
       device interrupt num0 num1  num2       num127

Suppose a device driver requested irq num0 and num1 at the beginning, 
and for some reason it freed irq num1, mbigen_write_msg will write reg1 
with event id 0. Then the pin1 probably mistakenly report interrupt num0 
to device driver if there is a signal on the pin.


	event id       0      0     2          127
    vector register    reg0  reg1  reg2       reg127
			|     |     |           |
	  MBIGEN	pin0  pin1  pin2  ...  pin127
         		|-----|-----|-----|-----|
			|     |     |     |     |
	device interrup num0 num1  num2       num127
