I will take care of this.

The loop is not endless. We need to take care of two conditions here:
1) From the point we selected an irq line to the point where we call
request_irq(), it is possible that someone else could have requested
the same line and so we need to close this window.
2) request_irq() may fail for reasons other than the fact that we
may have lost the line that we thought we got.
So, while we loopback, we check to see if the irq line we got is the same
that we got before (refer to the check soon after the call
to vmbus_get_irq()). This check would ensure that we would not loop
endlessly.

This is what gets passed to the hypervisor - refer to vmbus_dev_add().
This is existing code.

Greg, this patch addressed a specific comment with regards dynamically allocate the irq.
Hank is working on a patch to address the various DPRINTS in the code.
