 OK, this is sane. It has updated the device for the interrupt it has
 choosen (which was the problem in Stephen's case). But it seems like the
 ACPI SCI really can't be used here. Can you try the attached patch? That
 removes the check for reusing BIOS interrupts, which doesn't make much
 sense IMO.
