asp_find_irq() wants changing:

-               case 0x76:      irq = 21; break; /* Centronics */
+               case 0x76:      irq = 17; break; /* EISA BA */

and needs a default case to avoid returning random irq values.

and you probably want something like this in eisa_probe():

        eisa_dev.region->action = kmalloc(sizeof(struct irqaction) * 32, GFP_ATOMIC);
        memset(eisa_dev.region->action, 0, sizeof(struct irqaction) * 32);

I'm sure '32' is wrong, but at least you need some range checking on
irq in eisa_irq() before using it to index in to the action array.

Now I get one EISA irq immediately that request_irq(irq, eisa_irq, 0, name, NULL)
is called, at which point the above allocation hasn't yet happened ==> bang.
Incidently, eisa_irq() reports "EISA irq 167" for that event so using irq
as a simple index into action[] is probably wrong.

I don't get any further eisa_irq() calls once my scsi card gerneates an
interrupt, but for all I know I may have to poke some registers in the
card before it allows interrupts out.
