I know. I was talking about the preallocated irq descriptors and the
handling of it in general.

Nevertheless, that irq_2_iommu stuff does not need it's own allocation
function. It's bound to a specific irq_cfg anyway, so the next logical
step is to move irq_2_iommu into struct irq_cfg and get rid of the
extra allocation/free in intr_remapping.c.
