SubjectRe: [PATCH v2 3/5] KVM: SVM: fix race between interrupt delivery and AVIC inhibition

But that's what the comment is about.

Yeah, I agree that this particular aspect is a bit weird at first. But
it is also natural if you consider how IRR is implemented for AVIC vs.
APICv, especially with respect to incomplete IPIs. And the LAPIC code
becomes a blueprint for AVIC's, i.e. you can see that the AVIC code
effectively becomes the one in lapic.c when you have either
!vcpu->arch.apicv_active or an incomplete IPI.

I don't hate the code below, it does lose a bit of expressiveness of the
LAPIC code but I guess it's a good middle ground.
