Exactly my point. KVM_REQ_EVENT means many things, all of them event
injection related. It can be split may be to 2/3 smaller request, but
it will complicate the code and why would we do that without actually
able to show performance improvements that split provides?

And it is just one more things that needs to be done during event
injection. Without providing a good reason no need to handle it
specially. Performance is convincing enough reason, but I what to
see numbers.
