Joao Martins 9482ae458b KVM: VMX: Consider PID.PIR to determine if vCPU has pending interrupts 
Commit 17e433b543 ("KVM: Fix leak vCPU's VMCS value into other pCPU")
introduced vmx_dy_apicv_has_pending_interrupt() in order to determine
if a vCPU have a pending posted interrupt. This routine is used by
kvm_vcpu_on_spin() when searching for a a new runnable vCPU to schedule
on pCPU instead of a vCPU doing busy loop.

vmx_dy_apicv_has_pending_interrupt() determines if a
vCPU has a pending posted interrupt solely based on PID.ON. However,
when a vCPU is preempted, vmx_vcpu_pi_put() sets PID.SN which cause
raised posted interrupts to only set bit in PID.PIR without setting
PID.ON (and without sending notification vector), as depicted in VT-d
manual section 5.2.3 "Interrupt-Posting Hardware Operation".

Therefore, checking PID.ON is insufficient to determine if a vCPU has
pending posted interrupts and instead we should also check if there is
some bit set on PID.PIR if PID.SN=1.

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.
