The problem isn't FAST interrupts with cardbus.  The problem is that
fast interrupts can't be shared.  I don't think sio does anything that 
requires a fast interrupt, except for the latency issues for the 16550 
uarts.  They can't tolerate the latency we have in non-fast interrupts 
in current :-(.
