And at the same time direct interrupt assigment from the driver is
frowned upon ... feels a bit stupid, having to setup a cpu-to-queue
assigment (which typically is identical to the cpu-to-msix
assignment), then pass this information to blk-mq, which then passed
it to user-space, which then uses the information to setup a
cpu-to-msix assignment.
There is room for improvement there ...

Are there any plans addressing this in blk-mq?
What does NVMe and virtio do?

Cheers,

Hannes
