Some prefer that source code be "templatized" regardless
of the number of exit points that any particular use of a
specific function type.

This is another interesting view on involved implementation details.

Some of your patches are converting these templatized
functions to a different form for no added value.

Would you like to distinguish a bit more between my evolving
collection of update suggestions and the concrete proposal
for the function "nicvf_register_interrupts"?

These patches make the local source code inconsistent
and generally goes against the authors preferred style.

Which programming approach will be the leading one here finally?
