After an interrupt injection, the PPR changes, and we have to reflect that into the vapic. This causes a KVM_REQ_EVENT to be set, which causes the whole interrupt injection routine to be run again (harmlessly). Optimize by only setting KVM_REQ_EVENT if the ppr was lowered; otherwise there is no chance that a new injection is needed.
