This reverts commit bb218fbcfaaa3b115d4cd7a43c0ca164f3a96e57. As Oren Twaig pointed out the old discussion: https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/8292231/ that the change coud potentially cause an extra IPI to be sent to the destination vcpu because the AVIC hardware already set the IRR bit before the incomplete IPI #VMEXIT with id=1 (target vcpu is not running). Since writting to ICR and ICR2 will also set the IRR. If something triggers the destination vcpu to get scheduled before the emulation finishes, then this could result in an additional IPI. Also, the issue mentioned in the commit bb218fbcfaaa was misdiagnosed.

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.
