Hello,
I have a Toshiba 320 CDS laptop (i386 arch). When I try and run a
2.3 kernel (2.3.99-pre6) it panics on boot. I've tracked the problem back
to a null pointer deference in pci-irq.c If I prevent this derefernce it
boots ok. Attached is a patch to solve the problem. Comment, suggestions
and even a correct fix (I'm no kernel hacker) would be nice in the next
pre release.

Please CC responses.

Cheers,
Benjamin
