Could you explain why this change is needed here?
Would be helpful for those, including me, who will read the commit later.

How about this? (just about stylistic issues)

	if (!wakeup)
		return;

	rcu_read_lock();
	kvm_for_each_vcpu(vcpu, kvm)
		if (kvm_apic_accept_pic_intr(vcpu)) {
			found = vcpu;
			break;
		}

	if (!found)
		goto out;

	kvm_make_request(KVM_REQ_EVENT, found);
	kvm_vcpu_kick(found);
out:
	rcu_read_unlock();

zap is really a good name for this?

How about adding some comments?
zap_work is not at all self explanatory, IMO.

Is this macro really worth it?
_rcu shows readers important information, I think.

Same here.
Why do you want to hide _rcu from readers?
