[PATCH] kvm: only allow one gsi per fd

[Michael S. Tsirkin]

Looks like repeatedly binding same fd to multiple gsi's with irqfd can
use up a ton of kernel memory for irqfd structures.

A simple fix is to allow each fd to only trigger one gsi: triggering a
srorm of interrupts in guest is likely useless anyway, and we can do it
by binding a single gsi to many interrupts if we really want to.

This patch is IMO a good candidate for 2.6.33 and 2.6.32.x.
