not sure if it is right... the offending commit looks right.

    genirq: Query arch for number of early descriptors
    
    sparse irq sets up NR_IRQS_LEGACY irq descriptors and archs then go
    ahead and allocate more.
    
    Use the unused return value of arch_probe_nr_irqs() to let the
    architecture return the number of early allocations. Fix up all users.
