I did not read your email first time correctly. You are saying
that we restore it twice in the host kernel (aka dom0), once in the
hypervisor (b/c the guest tries to do MSI-X write and it ends up in
the hypervisor), and then we also do it in the guest kernel?
That is a lot of duplicate calls.

I am not sure I completly follow this. Is the reason for the lost of
interrupt b/c one of those four MSI-X writes ends up masking and the
subsequent writes end up with invalid data?

But if you pass said PCI device to a guest there is no need for the
interrupts to go to the host (dom0). They should go to the hypervisor
which will deliever them to the guest.
Is that what you meant by 'in dom0' ?

So I think you are saying that it won't cause problems?
