None of the evtchn_make_refcounted() failures can occur since we know we have a valid irq and info at the single call site. I would like to see this fixed by refactoring the code to remove evtchn_make_refcounted() by making all irqs for event channels reference counted. These no need for this refcounting to be optional.
