This sounds very familiar. As I said, the patch fixes the IO-APIC so IRQ polarities and mode is it is now setup as per ACPI... its obviously doing _something_ for you.
However, there is a second problem which I do not yet have a resolution for.
On my board, it manifests itself with PCI addon cards.. I never see any IRQs from them because the IO-APIC is configured (as per ACPI) for active high IRQs, yet the PCI standard is active low IRQs.
I am fairly certain that the IO-APIC is now configured correctly, and that the PCI routing is correct, because Windows XP sets everything up in exactly the same way, and everything works fine under it.
There is something else that is not being done by linux. I'd assumed this was an nforce2-specific issue, but your results hint that it may be larger than this.
