KVM: only allow one gsi per fd
Looks like repeatedly binding same fd to multiple gsi's with irqfd can use up a ton of kernel memory for irqfd structures. A simple fix is to allow each fd to only trigger one gsi: triggering a storm of interrupts in guest is likely useless anyway, and we can do it by binding a single gsi to many interrupts if we really want to.
