Why? We request interrupt window here because there is ExtINT interrupt
pending. ExtINT interrupt has a precedence over APIC interrupts (our
current code is incorrect!), so we want vmexit as soon as interrupts are
allowed to inject ExtINT and we do not want virtual interrupt to be
delivered. I think the (4) there is exactly for this situation.
