SubjectChoice of "XT PIC" in /proc/interrupts
I've kind of wondered this ever since the new format went into the kernel.
Wouldn't the interrupts above 8 be considered AT interrupts? The 0 thru 8
were on the XT and then they kludged in another PIC that was cascaded from
2 to 9.

Maybe just a simple "Standard PIC" on UP boxes and "APIC" for SMP boxes would
be appropriate.

Seeing "XT PIC" on makes it sound like my system is ooooooold. :)

Forward thinking, backward compatible.
Which is worse, ignorance or apathy? Who knows? Who cares?
