Where does it say irq 0 is reserved on all platforms?
I am not sure this is right.

Pls read the PCI spec:

Interrupt Pin
The Interrupt Pin register tells which interrupt pin the device (or device function) uses. A
value of 1 corresponds to INTA#. A value of 2 corresponds to INTB#. A value of 3
corresponds to INTC#. A value of 4 corresponds to INTD#. Devices (or device functions)
that do not use an interrupt pin must put a 0 in this register.


Please check vp_dev->pci_dev->pin accordingly.
