Blast. You're right, because i is the results of scanning irq_vector
(AKA IO_APIC_VECTOR()) for a previous use of the vector. If i <
NR_IRQS then it has found a previous use and would substitute the other
IRQ number rather than allocate a new one.
Of course, one side effect of calling assign_irq_vector(gsi) is that the
vector number is stored at position gsi in irq_vector. So, for IRQs 0
to NR_IRQS - 1, it will always find itself.
OK, how about not fighting that side effect and only reassigning IRQs
that are >= NR_IRQS? Maybe something like this:
