it depends on the card, not the controller, i guess.
after looking at the code, i've also found that the irq probing is
implemented when CONFIG_ISA is enabled.  (in the case of 2.6, it's
another conditiion. but it's enabled only when CONFIG_ISA is set, so
CONFIG_ISA is mandatory in any case.)

anyway, it's really good to know.  your full two days are not useless
at all!  :)
