I map device/intx to link, and then map to the isa irq of the link. When
link route is updated, device/intx will map to the new isa irq of the
link. But due to different links may be set the same  isa irq, it can't
guarantee that one guest isa irq maps to only one device/intx. So now I
don't have a good solution to avoid aliasing into the ISA IRQ space.
