Why? Until we tell the hypervisor to route the vmbus interrupts on the specified vector,
no vmbus interrupts will be delivered and this is done in the function hv_synic_init().
So, the only requirement here is that all of the irq plumbing and allocations be done 
before we enable the synthetic interrupt controller and register the vector with the
hypervisor. What am I missing.
