Is this a regression? If so, what kernel version worked and when did it start
failing?
With the device disabled in BIOS, you might be able to boot without
"pnpacpi=off" if you rename the parport_pc driver to prevent it from loading.
It would be interesting to see the DSDT, the /sys/.../resources and
/sys/.../options files, and /proc/interrupts.
When PNP binds a driver to a device, it activates the device if it is inactive.
That probably turns on the device even if it was initially disabled by the
BIOS switch. But I don't know why the IRQ should be different in this case.
