So your concern is that if you have a single irqfd and a single eventfd, KVM_EOIFD could be called in a loop and each time time through we'd allocate a struct _eoifd until the kernel falls over? Sounds like a problem. You've already pushed for allowing the eventfd to be multiplexed, so seems like our only choice is to test for irqfd re-use. So each irqfd can only be tied to a single eoifd, but multiple irqfds may be tied to the same eoifd. Seems like a fairly easy change.
