Also this really needs a KVM unit test, to avoid breaking corner cases like
sending IPI to 0xFF address, which was the reason I had to fix the 
avic_kick_target_vcpus_fast.

We do have 'apic' test in kvm unit tests,
and I was already looking to extend it to cover more cases and to run it with AVIC's
compatible settings. I hope I will be able to do this this week.
