[EXTERNAL] [PATCH v2 06/10] bus/vmbus: allocate interrupt during probing

Sat Jun 20 00:05:09 CEST 2026


> Allocating the interrupt handle is a waste of memory if no device is probed
> later (like for example, if a allowlist is passed).
> Instead, allocate this handle at the time probe_device is called.
