Default file limit value set by systemd can be found: systemctl show --property DefaultLimitNOFILESoft
DefaultLimitNOFILESoft=1024

This limit could easily be exceeded on larger systems resulting in:

Starting irqbalance Can't open class file: : Too many open files
startproc: signal catched /usr/sbin/irqbalance: Segmentation fault

Adding the property to irqbalance.service.in sets a sane default and allows people to easily find the right place where to adjust the limit.
