The current implementation uses a static bitmap for interrupt descriptor allocation and a radix tree to pointer store the pointer for lookup. However, the size of the bitmap is constrained by the build time macro MAX_SPARSE_IRQS, which may not be sufficient to support high-end servers, particularly those with GICv4.1 hardware, which require a large interrupt space to cover LPIs and vSGIs. Replace the bitmap and the radix tree with a maple tree, which not only stores pointers for lookup, but also provides a mechanism to find free ranges. That removes the build time hardcoded upper limit.

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.
