Interrupt context storage is statically allocated at the time interrupts are allocated. Following allocation, the interrupt context is managed by directly accessing the elements of the array using the vector as index. It is possible to allocate additional MSI-X vectors after MSI-X has been enabled. Dynamic storage of interrupt context is needed to support adding new MSI-X vectors after initial allocation. Replace direct access of array elements with pointers to the array elements. Doing so reduces impact of moving to a new data structure. Move interactions with the array to helpers to mostly contain changes needed to transition to a dynamic data structure. No functional change intended.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
