Turning off the irq in hardware won't help you, you need to have a kernel
module that doesn't rely on the irq.  The i810 kernel module *will* share irqs
with other devices, but it sounds like your network card won't.  

If you are capable of it, consider looking at the i810 driver in the -3-5
branch and seeing what it does differently where the trunk references irq's.
