The dmesg shows the following important change:

@linux-pci:
All other PCI IRQs are routed the same in 2.6.38-r6 and 3.0.0. To the PCI
list and the PCI experts now reading this: Are you aware of any IRQ routing
change which went into mainline between 2.6.38 and 3.0?

@NaiLi Rootaerc:
Would it be possible for you to test out the mainline kernel sources, and
not the gentoo-sources (which do have some additional patches added, IIRC).

Best,
	Dominik
