In the meantime, I've gotten the "set_irq from IRQ context" that Avi

working, and the fixing up of this IOAPIC check is the last bit to actually get
kdump working.
There are two problems with that:
- kvm_set_irq() calls some notifiers (irq_mask_notifiers, at least, but
possibly more); need to make sure those are safe from irq context
- kvm_set_irq() will loop on all vcpus, usually incurring a cache miss
or two; with large vcpu counts this can make the irq-off time quite
large, hurting our worst-case latency
we can defer the second problem since it's only a performance issue, but
how did you deal with the first?
