The current allocator returns IRQ numbers from a pool and does not

Wtf? Nonono, this sounds very bogus and wrong. Migration shouldn't change
anything.
I put wrong commit message. By change I meant that the default state before
the destination guest started accepting migration is different from what
the destination guest became after migration finished. And migration cannot
avoid changing this default state.
Ok, why is the IRQ configuration different?
Because QEMU creates devices in the order as in the command line, and
libvirt changes this order - the XML used to create the guest and the XML
which is sends during migration are different. libvirt thinks it is ok
while it keeps @reg property for (for example) spapr-vscsi devices but it
is not because since the order is different, devices call IRQ allocator in
different order and get different IRQs.
