+ * Theory of operation
+ *
+ * The IRQ bypass manager is a simple set of lists and callbacks that allows
+ * IRQ producers (ex. physical interrupt sources) to be matched to IRQ
+ * consumers (ex. virtualization hardware that allows IRQ bypass or offload)
+ * via a shared eventfd_ctx. Producers and consumers register independently.
+ * When a producer and consumer are paired, i.e. an eventfd match is found, the
+ * optional @stop callback will be called for each participant. The pair will
+ * then be connected via the @add_* callbacks, and finally the optional @start
+ * callback will allow any final coordination. When either participant is
+ * unregistered, the process is repeated using the @del_* callbacks in place of
+ * the @add_* callbacks. eventfds must be unique per producer/consumer, 1:N
+ * pairings are not supported.
