This change log could use some improvements. Why is it bad if admin
interrupts affinity is with cpu0?

Are you able to measure _any_ performance difference on IO queue 1 vs IO
queue 2 that you can attribute to IO queue 1's sharing vector 0?

So controllers that have only legacy or single-message MSI don't get any
IO queues?
