Hostap_cs shared irq oops

Hi, I recently upgraded to kernel 2.6.18.2 and noticed these problems:
 - I realized that having CONFIG_ISA=y makes it always crash when i 
insert the card (complains about unexpected LVT TMR interrupt). So i 
disabled Isa.
 - Hostap_cs gets a shared Irq (this didn't happen with kernel 
2.6.15.6). It crashes if the interrupt is triggered while the device is 
not fully initialized (Error is: "Divide error 0000 [#1]"). I can 
workaround that by using a flag and inserting a "if (!my_init_flag) { 
return IRQ_HANDLED }" at the begining of the irq handler.

- I don't know much about irq allocation. Can i try something to get my 
separate irq back?
- Should i try different configuration or 2.6.19?
- Should hostap_cs be enhanced to support shared irq?

I use debian etch. Laptop is a G200N 1.7GHz Centrino.

Thanks, please CC me if you can (works both with or without the "_nospam").
