Can it be used to bind other kinds of events ?  The phrasing is
ambigous.


No. As far as I can see, it can only be used to bind new interdomain events, not other events.

This entire file (including the description) is copied directly from Linux's include/uapi/xen/evtchn.h so the description shouldn't be changed here anyway.
