If it is missing all the IRQs then that sounds like a board level IRQ routing
problem not a driver one. If it only misses some then it may be driver level.
I'm working on a new it821x driver for libata but I'd appreciate a detailed
report of the problem you have and maybe can chase down old driver bugs too.
