(only looking at this very patch with no background information, so just
some notes)

1. e.g. kvm_s390_vcpu_has_irq() has to check all possible paths for
pending interrupts. It uses pending_irqs().

2. kvm_s390_deliver_pending_interrupts() delivers interrupts in the
order of priority. It could be that leaving it completely to the
hardware will result in some priority changes that could theoretically
be observed by the guest

(will have to study the GIB patches)
