There's still the need to convert this to qdev gpio, but for now I'll review the
updated version of this patch (and provide an example once the rest of the 
patchset
is okay).

There's no need to do that now. I think it only makes sense to do that when the 686B and VT8231 models are also qdevified (which I'll plan to do when cleaning up my pegasos2 patches later) since that may change how this should be qdevified. But I don't have time to fully do it now so don't even ask. This will have to do for now as it's not worse than it is already and does fix clients so I see no immediate need to force more clean ups upon me.

This looks much closer to what I was expecting with the fixed IRQs, and in fact
doesn't it make the feature bit requirement obsolete? The PCI_CLASS_PROG bit is 
now
the single source of truth as to whether native or legacy IRQs are used, and 
the code
routes the IRQ accordingly.

No, the feature bit is still needed to flag if this device should work with 100% native mode as on fulong2e or with forced legacy IRQ non-100% native mode as on pegasos2. In both cases PCI_CLASS_PROG is actually set to native mode (most of the time, Linux fixes this up on pegasos2 for it's own convenience but other OSes don't care about it but we still need to know to use legacy interrupts) so the feature bit is needed to know when to use legacy and when native interrupts.

The hardcoded IRQ14 in native mode is also wrong, If you check VT8231 datasheet it clearly says that the IRQ raised is selected by PCI_INTERRUPT_LINE so I think my previous version was correct but this still works because we fixed PCI_INTERRUPT_LINE to 14 so we know here it's 14 without looking at the config reg that you forbid me to do. But due to coincidence it still works and matches your ideals about PCI specs that I don't think apply for this device but I could not convince you about that so if this is what it takes then so be it. As long as it works with clients I don't care, we can always clean this up later.

The comment here is interesting so I had a quick look at pci_do_device_reset() 
to see
what is happening there, and to me it seems that the real bug is
pci_do_device_reset() doesn't honour wmask for PCI_INTERRUPT_LINE. This is 
because
normally the BIOS would write this value long after the PCI bus has been 
physically
reset and since via-ide is the first device to hardwire a value here, this 
wouldn't
have been needed up until now.

Fortunately it seems that there is already precedent for this so does the 
following
diff work?

If this works, it will help simplify your patch even further.

This seems to work but originally I did not want to touch anything that could break other parts so I did not investigate this further. Thanks for the suggestion, I've added this patch in v3 and removed workaround from via-ide.

Possibly a separate patch for PCI_CLASS_PROG change? Although with the latest 
version
of the patchset is it even still needed?

I don't see a need to add another one line patch for this here unless someone authorative asks for that. This is needed to allow Linux on pegasos2 to use this reg to signal its driver that it should use legacy interrupts. That is, while everything else is using native mode and this reg should also say that the pegasos2 fixup function of Linux sets this reg to legacy mode so it knows later that legacy interrupts should be used on this board. Therefore we need to allow this change.
