Hi Keir.

The c/s of 660:7886619f623e in linux-2.6.18-xen breaks ia64.
Should I make the related functions arch-specific moving them
to linux/arch/x86/kernel/io_apic-xen.c?
Please consider applying the following patch or give me a suggestion.

IA64 doesn't have IO APIC so that the macro, IO_APIC_IRQ(),
doesn't make sense.
Instead, it has IO SAPIC which differs from IO APIC.

thanks,
