So entry->masked is always updated with newest value and its value could be used
to restore to mask register in device.

But in initial domain (aka priviliged guest), it's different.

The right mask value is saved in entry->msi_attrib.masked on Xen.

So entry->msi_attrib.masked in xen side always has newest value. entry->masked
in initial domain is untouched and is 1 after msix_capability_init.
If we run the following sequence:

     pci_enable_msix()
     request_irq()

don't we end up with the MSI IRQ unmasked if we're on bare metal but masked
if we're on Xen?  It seems like we'd want it unmasked in both cases, so I
expected your patch to do something to make it unmasked if we're on Xen.
But I don't think it does, does it?

As far as I can tell, this patch only changes the pci_restore_state()
path.  I think that part makes sense.

It's unmasked on Xen too. This is just what this patch try to fix.
In PHYSDEVOP_restore_msi hypercall, xen did the right thing that did by kernel in baremetal.

Based on above, it's Xen's duty to restore entry->msi_attrib.masked to device,
but with current code, entry->masked is used and MSI-x interrupt is masked.

Before patch, restore call graph under initial domain:
pci_reset_function->
     pci_restore_state->
         __pci_restore_msix_state->
             arch_restore_msi_irqs->
                 xen_initdom_restore_msi_irqs->
                     PHYSDEVOP_restore_msi hypercall (first mask restore)
             msix_mask_irq(entry, entry->masked)     (second mask restore)

So msix_mask_irq call in initial domain call graph needs to be removed.

Based on this we can move the restore of the mask in default_restore_msi_irqs
which would avoid restoring the invalid mask under Xen. Furthermore this
simplifies the API by making everything related to restoring an MSI be in the
platform specific APIs instead of just parts of it.

After patch, restore call graph under initial domain:
pci_reset_function->
     pci_restore_state->
         __pci_restore_msix_state->
             arch_restore_msi_irqs->
                 xen_initdom_restore_msi_irqs->
                     PHYSDEVOP_restore_msi hypercall (first mask restore)
and entry->msi_attrib.masked is restored to hardware register in PHYSDEVOP_restore_msi hypercall on Xen.

Logic for baremetal is not changed.

     pci_restore_state->
         __pci_restore_msix_state->
             arch_restore_msi_irqs->
                 default_restore_msi_irqs->
             msix_mask_irq(entry, entry->masked)     (first mask restore)

                     msix_mask_irq(entry, entry->masked) (first mask restore)

The process for MSI code is similiar.
