And the exact purpose of returning the number of available interrupts
is?
Initially, I intended to use this function to allocate irqs for both MSI
and multi-MSI case. But I'll simplify this and revisit it again when
adding the multi-MSI.
+ virq = __irq_domain_alloc_irqs(v2m->domain, hwirq,
+ 1, NUMA_NO_NODE, v2m, true);
And surely the ability of alloc_msi_irq() to allocate a contiguous
vector space is required to satisfy an hardcoded allocation of ONE
interrupt.
What is guaranteeing that the caller only requests a single interrupt?
Since this is calling from gicv2m_setup_msi_irq(), it should only setup
1 MSI interrupt.

Single error exit which undoes the stuff in the same order it got

other kernel files?
I'll clean this up in V10. Thanks for pointing this out.
