 This is completely broken -- you cannot blindly assume IRQ0 is wired to
the pin #0 of the I/O APIC #0.  You have to respect routing information
provided by the system.

 Ingo, from the sequence above, I gather this code is currently in the 
tree:

-	replace_pin_at_irq(0, 0, 0, apic1, pin1);
-	apic1 = 0;
-	pin1 = 0;

Please revert the change which introduced it.  While I recall posting a
patch which added code like this, I clearly stated it was solely for
diagnostics of Rafael's system and not to apply to any tree.
