Mapping can be handled independently: even if a given host interrupt
is on irqs-reserved list, the mapping description for it can be
provided (e.g. similar to the resource table case passed through rproc
subsystem) and nothing prevents this driver from actually routing it.

Sure, I will rename this variable.
