The sense of the IF bit is backwards in the host interrupt handling. This means we always save "IF=1" on the stack when injecting an interrupt. It turns out this is almost always correct (unless the guest is taking a page fault in an interrupt due to an unpopulated vmalloc mapping), so went unnoticed.
