a single deassign removed multiple irqfds? Looks ugly.

Avi requested this general concept.

Really? Avi, could you explain? I would think each
assign needs to be matched with 1 deassign. No?

Doesn't it follow naturally? How can a single deassign remove multiple fds (unless all were registered with exactly the same arguments)?

Maybe we should instead detect that the duplicate iosignaldfds are registered.

Note that we do need to allow the same fd to be multiple times, but not with exactly the same address/match etc.
