Sorry, I see as irq_alloc_desc_from(from, node)
you are right

But for virtual interrupt numbersit should be a power-of-2 naturally
aligned block, because it must be continuous, as the MSI-HOWTO.txt says:

     4.2.2 pci_enable_msi_block
     int pci_enable_msi_block(struct pci_dev *dev, int count)
     This variation on the above call allows a device driver to request
     multiple MSIs.  The MSI specification only allows interrupts to be
     allocated in powers of two, up to a maximum of 2^5 (32).
     If this function returns 0, it has succeeded in allocating at least
     as many interrupts as the driver requested
     (it may have allocated more in order to satisfy the power-of-two
     requirement). In this case, the function enables MSI on this device
     and updates dev->irq to be the lowest of the new interrupts
     assigned to it. The other interrupts assigned to the device are in
     the range dev->irq to dev->irq + count - 1.

See the last line, that means for the virtual interrupts must be a
continuous block.

OK, your right.
