Isn't LASI a PA (ie GSC bus) device?
If so, it can use any EIRR bit/HPA pair supported by the PA processor code.
It needs to register an ISR with PA interrupt code and get the EIRR/HPA
pair (commonly called EIM value).

Same is true for Dino.

For Dino, I think so. On a reads, it shouldn't matter unless the
reads have side effects (eg. clears the byte register). On writes
too many byte enables will be set.

BTW, I assume you are talking about PCI MMIO/Port/Cfg space accessor
functions.

What do you mean "bottom half"?
dino_isr() to map DINO EIM registers to PCI IRQ lines (and thus
PCI device ISRs)?
