With ACPI enabled and IO-APIC being properly declared in the ACPI tables
we can use interrupt lines 16-23 for virtio and avoid shared interrupts.

With acpi disabled we continue to use lines 8-15.

7 interrupt lines? Is there a specific requirements of which
ones should be assigned to what device?

Or perhaps - could you include /proc/interrupts in the commit if that is OK?

8 lines (23 is inclusive), one for each virtio device.  It wouldn't give
you separate config change or per-queue interrupts (I think virtio-mmio
doesn't support that).  It only avoids sharing interrupts with legacy
pc devices like rtc and acpi.

cheers,
