The IRTE for an assigned device can trigger a POSTED_INTR_VECTOR even if APICv is disabled on the vCPU that receives it. In that case, the interrupt will just cause a vmexit and leave the ON bit set together with the PIR bit corresponding to the interrupt. Right now, the interrupt would not be delivered until APICv is re-enabled. However, fixing this is just a matter of always doing the PIR->IRR synchronization, even if the vCPU has temporarily disabled APICv. This is not a problem for performance, or if anything it is an improvement. First, in the common case where vcpu->arch.apicv_active is true, one fewer check has to be performed. Second, static_call_cond will elide the function call if APICv is not present or disabled. Finally, in the case for AMD hardware we can remove the sync_pir_to_irr callback: it is only needed for apic_has_interrupt_for_ppr, and that function already has a fallback for !APICv.

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
