This changelog isn't really enough for me to understand
what's going on.

I hate to see new uses of pci_routeirq. It'd be nice to remove it
completely someday. But maybe it can't be helped.

"update_mptable" is apparently a boot option, but it's not mentioned
in Documentation/kernel-parameters.txt. Is this some sort of debug
code or BIOS-writer's helper? Same with "alloc_mptable". Why do
we have this stuff?
