Another approach is to defer allocating the vector until
request_irq() registers the interrupt handler. That way,
only devices that have drivers get interrupts.

Another way to reduce/avoid sharing of vector table entries is to have
multiple Vector Tables. Either one for each CPU or each node of
a ccNUMA-like machine. I thought SGI's NUMA machines implement
this already but haven't checked.
