One of my standard tests (booting a MIPS Malta emulation with a
Debian NFS root) no longer works.
Git bisect shows that this commit caused the regression:

mips_malta: move i8259 initialization after piix4 initialization
i8259 is an ISA device (or at least, depends on the ISA
infrastructure to
register its ioport); and the ISA bus is supplied by piix4. Later
patches
make this dependency explicit.
Use qemu_irq_proxy() to stop the cycle by adding an extra layer of
indirection.

The test was run with default networking and with an eepro100
network card. In both cases, Linux shows the ethernet devices,
but fails to read init from NFS. I think there are problems
with interrupt handling.
Is there a simple solution? Otherwise I'll examine this issue.
It would be good to get this fixed before 1.0 is released.

Stefan
