Right, so should we drop the "if (running)" check in this patch, at the same

LOL, I think we have a Three^WTwo Stooges routine going on.  This patch does
remove avic_vcpu_is_running() and replaces it with the vcpu->mode check.  Or am
I completely misunderstanding what your referring to?

-       if (avic_vcpu_is_running(vcpu)) {
+       /*
+        * Signal the doorbell to tell hardware to inject the IRQ if the vCPU
+        * is in the guest.  If the vCPU is not in the guest, hardware will
+        * automatically process AVIC interrupts at VMRUN.
+        */
+       if (vcpu->mode == IN_GUEST_MODE) {
                 int cpu = READ_ONCE(vcpu->cpu);

Nevermind, I confused svm_deliver_avic_intr with avic_kick_target_vcpus, which anyway you are handling in patch 36.
