the current pirq code defines intel_irq_routing_table as const, thus making it potentially readonly.
should be const due to execute-in-place issues.
OTOH the code in arch/i386/boot/pirq_routing.c tries to correct the checksum and size entries in that table.
that's my fault I bet.
I think that table should not be declared const, especially since we might want to create it dynamically later on.
no, leave const unless we ALWAYS copy to memory and then work with it.
