I don't think that the number of pins per IOAPIC increases. At least not
in the devices I've seen so far.

The worst case remains #IOAPIC * 24 iterations - if we have means to
stop after the IOAPIC entries, not iterating over all routes.

And you need to ensure that their routes can be found in the table
directly. Given IOAPIC hotplug, that may not be the first ones there...
