Right but unfortunately we are not there before a little while. And the
existing code in these drivers allocating vectors doesn't even take into
account hotplug as you spotted. So I agreed to let Nitesh fix this issue
on top of the existing code until he can look into providing some infrastructure
for these kind of vectors allocation. The first step would be to consolidate
similar code from other drivers, then maybe handle hotplug and later
dynamic housekeeping.
