KVM how many source controllers we want and how many interrupts each
source controller should handle? The

For wiring things together, I agree. But the IOAPIC has a fixed number
of input lines per chip, Power needs to configure them. I don't think
deriving this from addressed lines is the best solution. Some lines may
be configured (too) late, when the

Probably you do need a variant of KVM_CREATE_IRQCHIP to create the
