Hm, we do also support the Xen abomination of snooping on MSI table writes to see if they're targeted at a Xen PIRQ, then actually unmasking the MSI from QEMU when the guest binds the corresponding event channel to that PIRQ.

I think this is going to break in CI as kvm_xen_guest.py does deliberately exercise that use case, doesn't it?

I deliberately *didn't* switch to testing the Xen PV net device, with a comment that testing MSI and irqchip permutations was far more entertaining. So I hope it should catch this?
