Across bridges the interrupts get swizzled sort of. Which means
that device 0,4,8,etc. INT A gets mapped to INT A on the front
side of the bridge, device 1,5,7,etc. INT A gets mapped to INT B.
etc. IIRC your device is at device 5.0, so it's INT A should be
mapped to INT B of that slot, which should get a different interrupt.

No, the BIOS sets it up and we may try to tweak it. In 5.x we
fully tweak it now, but 4.x still relies on the BIOS to set this
up.
