Do you mean NR_IRQS_LEGACY? Yeah, I could do that.

Yes, it is the same. I guess a comment would be better then.

Appended the updated version of this patch.

Use PHYSDEVOP_get_free_pirq to implement find_unbound_pirq

Use the new hypercall PHYSDEVOP_get_free_pirq to ask Xen to allocate a
pirq. Remove the unsupported PHYSDEVOP_get_nr_pirqs hypercall to get the
amount of pirq available.
