I think I have gotten the point. For tsi108/9, there are 24 internal
interrupt. PCI/INTA  to PCI/INTD are routed to interrupt 23 with a
special mechanism on the chip. INTA to INTD are assiged to nubmer 36 to
39, which are exceed the nubmer irq number assigned in mpic_alloc().
This cause abnormal return in function pci_read_irq_line().
I have worked out a patch. after a test, I will publish it.
