We will also need a pair for PIC and a pair for IOAPIC routing.

How about a single ioctl to set the entire routing table?  It would take 
an array of structures:

struct {
    __u32 gsi;
    __u32 type;
    __u32 flags;
    __u32 reserved;
    union {
         struct {
             __u32 irq;
         } pic;
         struct {
            __u32 ioapic; // can have >1 ioapic
            __u32 inti;
         } ioapic;
         struct {
            ...
         } msi;
         __u32 reserved[8];
    };
};

This way we can solve the HPET irq0/inti2 mess, and also have a simpler 
way of setting MSI.  All the mess in one ioctl.

Linear search is a bit sad but fine for now.  Later we can add an array 
indexed by gsi.
