I think snd_intel8x0 (00:1f.5) is connected to LNKB, and in v4.6 LNKB
was set to IRQ 5, while in v4.7 LNKB is connected to IRQ7.  It looks
like IRQ7 is already in use by parport, which doesn't want to share
it.

This might be related to Sinan's changes to pci_link.c, which
were merged for 4.7:

  9e5ed6d1fb87 ACPI,PCI,IRQ: remove SCI penalize function
  1fcb6a813c4f ACPI,PCI,IRQ: remove redundant code in acpi_irq_penalty_init()
  5c5087a55390 ACPI,PCI,IRQ: reduce static IRQ array size to 16
  103544d86976 ACPI,PCI,IRQ: reduce resource requirements

I don't think we intended to change any behavior with those patches,
but maybe we did.  Could you confirm/deny that those patches are
related?  If they're not, bisection might be the quickest way to
find the problem.
