The !eventfd_signal_val test is redundant since this is and else branch
of a test for eventfd_signal_val.

Was this meant to be >= 2? Or just > 1? I think we're only
advertising an index with a count of 1.

It's also valid for a user to set this with DATA_BOOL.

Both comments above apply to instances below as well.

start and count are ignored here, the user could pass anything.

I don't think this supports all user interactions either, notably
providing an eventfd of -1 to disable the IRQ as defined in the uapi.
