That was not a side effect. That was intentional.

We used to? Maybe you used to. I did not.

That was definitely unintended, but that's a purely cosmetic issue.

No, that's not wrong. There is absolutely no reason to allocate an
interrupt gate later.

The only thing what's wrong is that alloc_intr_gate() lacks an __init
annotation and a sanity check to reject attempts which come in late
after idt_setup_apic_and_irq_gates() was invoked.

With that addressed we can remove the set_bit() for unused vectors to
cure the /proc/interrupts cosmetics.

Talking about side effects. This also reflects the actual number of
system vectors which are assigned in the debugfs interface as that was
'broken' as well.

Thanks,
