I think it's broken yes. But I was looking for someone to actually tell
me wether they agreed on this or not.
Despite the rare use of big endian hosts, it may be ware to submit this
is a separate fix indeed.

I think you're missing how the VGIC works. We need to clear the
LR_STATE on the memory representation of the LRs, because that's how we
know the guest has processed an interrupt and is ready to take a new
one.
Also, there's no IO memory for the GICv3 LRs, they're system registers.

What's your concern? A couple of extra bytes in the vcpu structure? I
wouldn't be opposed to changing the data type and moving things around
if someone wants to micro-optimize the KVM memory footprint. Patches
are welxome.

It looks nicer that with the long two lines.

Given that test_bit is more complicated because it can work on arbitrary
length bitmaps and we're operating on a single word here, what is the
benefit? Is it just that you prefer reading test_bit for readability or
do you have a claim of performance benefits?
