If you have one DSDT that could handle irq routing, (that DSDT need one clean room implementation, instead of "stealing" or referring dumping from legacy BIOS) you could acpi with DSDT only.
you will still need pirq table for some application to find slot number for pci card.
So these applications would read the table directly.
Are they running in Linux? Doesn't Linux offer an API with same information?
Yes.
that is just a mapping bus:dev:fn ==> slot number
So the user will known which card is which.
ACPI DSDT should provide such info too. at least for hotplug support.
