I think Avi asked for this specific feature during review which is the
reason why its there today.  However, I agree that it would probably be
a good idea to put an upper limit on the number of supported aliases
that can be registered.  Will fix.

Avi, can you elaborate on why do we want to map multiple fds
to the same gsi? I think it's better to allow a 1:1 mapping
only: if many processes want to trigger interrupts they can
all write to the same fd.

I don't want to assume that the eventfds all come from the same source.

That said, we have a workaround, allocate a new gsi with the same routes and attach the excess eventfds there.
