There are still only 4 LNK devices though (which PCI devices are striped across), and they cannot address IRQs > 15. These are both limitations of PIIX hardware. If we break that emulation, we may as well get rid of the PIIX PCI-ISA bridge device altogether and statically define everything (not a bad idea imo).
