Currently pre-caculate each set vectors, and this way requires same

This usage & interface is a bit awkward because the retry should have
been avoided by providing one reasonable 'min_vecs'.

Implement the callback of .calc_sets, so that pci_alloc_irq_vectors_affinity()
can calculate each set's vector after IRQ vectors is allocated and
before spread IRQ, then NVMe's retry in case of irq allocation failure
can be removed.

Thanks, Ming, this whole series looks like a great improvement for
drivers using irq sets.

Minor nit below. Otherwise you may add my review for the whole series
if you spin a v3 for the other minor comments.

+static void nvme_calc_irq_sets(struct irq_affinity *affd, int nvecs)
+{
+	struct nvme_dev *dev = affd->priv;
+
+	nvme_calc_io_queues(dev, nvecs);
+
+	affd->set_vectors[HCTX_TYPE_DEFAULT] = dev->io_queues[HCTX_TYPE_DEFAULT];
+	affd->set_vectors[HCTX_TYPE_READ] = dev->io_queues[HCTX_TYPE_READ];
+	affd->nr_sets = HCTX_TYPE_POLL;
+}
The value of HCTX_TYPE_POLL happens to be 2, but that seems more of a
coincidence right now. Can we hard code 2 just in case the value changes?
