  char ? bool if at all. Same for the function itself

  And this should go into one of the alreay existing cpu checks and
  set a software feature flag and not hack another weird instance of
  cpu model checking into the code.

static ? What the hell is this for ?

Why BUG if you can bail out with an error code ?

Ditto

What's this check for and why do we return EBUSY ?

No way. We went great length to make this code do GFP_KERNEL
allocations.

No, we don't want to iterate over the world and some more with
vector_lock held and interrupts disabled

Yikes, loop in a loop ??? With interrupts disabled? Imagine what that
means on a machine with 1k cores.

If it assumes that, it'd better check it

Assign it again ?

So BAD_APICID is equivalent to -1 ?

WTF? We have already changed the function to take a count argument,
why don't we propagate that all the way through instead of having 

    if (bla == 1)
        assign_irq_vector();
    else
	assign_irq_vector_block();

all over the place ?

And you think that compiles on anything else than with your .config ?

Sigh, this whole thing is total clusterf*ck.

The main horror is definitely not your fault. MSI is just broken.

Though I can understand why you want to implement this, but that does
not work that way at all.

1) Do not change global (non arch specific) interfaces when you do not
   fixup everything in one go. That does not work.

2) Provide a fine grained series of patches, which changes one thing
   each instead of a completely unrewieable monster patch

3) This needs a completely different approach:

   We can't do multivector MSI in a sensible way on x86. So instead of
   trying to fix that for your problem at hand, simply do the
   following:

   Implement a demultiplexing interrupt controller for your device.
   That needs one vector, works out of the box and the demux handler
   looks at the interrupt source and invokes the sub handlers via
   generic_handle_irq(irq_sub_source). You get all the usual stuff
   /proc/interrupts, separate request_irq() .....
