When assigning kvm irqfd we didn't check the irqchip mode but we allow KVM_IRQFD to succeed with all the irqchip modes. However it does not make much sense to create irqfd even without the kernel chips. Let's provide a arch-dependent helper to check whether a specific irqfd is allowed by the arch. At least for x86, it should make sense to check: - when irqchip mode is NONE, all irqfds should be disallowed, and, - when irqchip mode is SPLIT, irqfds that are with resamplefd should be disallowed. For either of the case, previously we'll silently ignore the irq or the irq ack event if the irqchip mode is incorrect. However that can cause misterious guest behaviors and it can be hard to triage. Let's fail KVM_IRQFD even earlier to detect these incorrect configurations.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
