This looks like an intermediate step before using multiple irqs. I think
it makes the code confusing because on one hand INDEX_ADMIN gives the
impression that INDEX_IO() should be used for io queues, while on the
other hand only a single EventNotifier is allocated and we actually
can't use INDEX_IO() yet.

If this intermediate patch is really necessary, please don't use
INDEX_ADMIN. Define a new constant instead:

  /* This driver shares a single MSIX IRQ for the admin and I/O queues */
  #define MSIX_SHARED_IRQ_IDX 0

In the future the array index can be changed to INDEX_ADMIN and
INDEX_IO(n) when there are multiple EventNotifiers.

I think that would make the code clearer.
