While investigating this (with current -git for sun4u and no
CONFIG_PCI_MSI)
CC arch/sparc64/kernel/irq.o
cc1: warnings being treated as errors
arch/sparc64/kernel/irq.c:113: warning: 'virt_irq_free' defined but not used
I found that virt_irq_free() is used only if CONFIG_PCI_MSI is defined
(for sun4v - simple to cure with a define), but virt_irq_alloc() is used
even without MSI enabled. Is this really correct? Do we alloc and not
free it in this case?

Yes, it is true :-) We allocate all the interrupts needed for the
entire system as we probe the busses and devices.
But with MSI, the MSI vectors are allocated and liberated with
pci_enable_msi()/pci_disable_msi() and related calls.
I'll add the necessary ifdefs, thanks for the report.
