Yes: using a level GSI with current irqfd is a userspace error
because you can lose interrupts anyway.

Are edge GSIs affected?

Yes. But you can use the above with the new irqfds you are adding.

Sorry I only meant for level irqfds. You are changing edge here.

Maybe it is a good idea. I am just asking for the motivation.
