I'm not sure it's a simplification because to index by gsi we suddenly need to care how many gsis there are. I believe that currently means we have to assume an ioapic. Creating a dumb list is a little bit of overhead, but we get to stay blissfully unaware of the gsi implementation. Practically we're looking at a list of 4 entries, maybe a few times that when we expose more PCI root bridges to the guest.
