I'm not sure it is more consistent. It is a *new* behaviour, because it
only
matters for migration, which has been so far unsupported.

It occurs to me that calling into irq_set_irqchip_state() for a large
number of interrupts can take a significant amount of time. It is also
odd that you dump the VPT with the VPE unmapped, but rely on the VPE
being mapped for the opposite operation.

Shouldn't these be symmetric, all performed while the VPE is unmapped?
It would also save a lot of ITS traffic.

Thanks,
