SubjectIO-APIC missing interrupts
I'm having some problems with the IO-APIC on a Acer Aspire 1501LMI 
laptop (AMD64). When the IO-APIC is enabled it misses some interrupts.
Using noapic makes everything work fine.

The problem appears during fifo transfers when interrupts are frequent.
My guess is that if a new interrupt is signaled while still in the
interrupt handler, the new interrupt gets ignored.

The device in question is a LPC/ISA device.

Are there perhaps some special commands that need to be executed by the
driver when on an APIC system?
