db->info.irq_remapping is set in msi_doorbell_register(). So you can keep book
about that there. No need to iterate here.
Yes makes sense to store the info at registration time. Currently this
function is not in any fast path but that's cleaner from a general
perspective. I will need to do such iteration at un-registration though.
Two simple counter should be sufficient.

  nr_registered_bells;
  nr_remapped_bells;
Yes definitively smarter to use counters! mental viscosity.

Thanks

Eric
