Should this be > 0 ? If we get here with a reference count still held
isn't that indicative of an issue?
Is this just because of the various error paths which call xen_free_irq
to clean up without also dropping the initial reference from
xen_irq_init? I think either these paths should just drop the reference
or the initial refcount should be 0 and the initial reference should be
taken only after the caller of xen_irq_init has actually succeeded.
