Peter, Andrew,
Please check dyn_array support for x86
v3: split changing to nr_irqs to small patches
fix checkpatch error
reorder the patch sequence to make dyn_array support go at first
so could use that with arrays other than NR_IRQS
The real issue is that I think Eric is right: the dyn_array is an
interesting data structure, but it's the wrong solution for the problem.
A static array would have to be ridiculously large given the potential
number of interrupt sources.
