I think it will be better to split out the gen irq changes out of x86 / apic
specific code.
I don't what to say. You are worried about the extra unused memory in case
of irq_desc right? The OF code has more or less the same problem. They use
irq_of_parse_and_map() / irq_create_mapping() to create a mapping between
virq (the linux number) and hw-irq (pin on the irq chip). This mapping is
created once the irq chip is detected. They don't care about virqs (aka
linux numbers) to be in a row and they allocate all of irqdesc at once.
Once you get irqdomain to be used within ioapic, then your "linux irq
number" vs "hw irq number" should disapper. Plus you can remove the whole
gsi_number thingy. And then you start working on getting irqdesc allocated
later, say at request_irq() time and free at free_irq().
However I am not sure if this is worth it. The advantage would be that you
would once one infrastcuture for linux-number vs hw-number mapping and the
delayed irqdesc allocate + numa node rellocating.

This looks somehow hackish. If irqdesc exists on another node then it
looks here like you overwrite it with a new one but __irq_realloc_desc()
deallocates the old one. As I said, this looks very hackish.

If you put this in line with the other functions, you wouldn't need to
copy the comment.

This is not reserved, this is allocated.

I don't like the part where it is named reserved but means allocated

and free if it is already avaiable because it should not be allocated.
