x86: eliminate hard-coded NR_IRQS
... splitting it into global nr_irqs (determined at boot time) and
per- domain nr_pirqs (derived from nr_irqs and a possibly command line
specified value, which probably should later become a per-domain
config setting).
This has the (desirable imo) side effect of reducing the size of
struct hvm_irq_dpci from requiring an order-3 page to order-2 (on
x86-64), which nevertheless still is too large.
However, there is now a variable size bit array on the stack in
pt_irq_time_out() - while for the moment this probably is okay, it
certainly doesn't look nice. However, replacing this with a static
(pre-)allocation also seems less than ideal, because that would
require at least min(d->nr_pirqs, NR_VECTORS) bit arrays of
d->nr_pirqs bits, since this bit array is used outside of the
serialized code region in that function, and keeping the domain's
event lock acquired across pirq_guest_eoi() doesn't look like a good
idea either.
The IRQ- and vector-indexed arrays hanging off struct hvm_irq_dpci
could in fact be changed further to dynamically use the smaller of the
two ranges for indexing, since there are other assumptions about a
one-to-one relationship between IRQs and vectors here and elsewhere.
Additionally, it seems to me that struct hvm_mirq_dpci_mapping's
digl_list and gmsi fields could really be overlayed, which would yield
significant savings since this structure gets always instanciated in
form of d->nr_pirqs (as per the above could also be the smaller of
this and NR_VECTORS) dimensioned arrays.
