This documents my PV EOI patchset and applies on top.
Will make it part of the patchset on the next respin.

+	data: Bit 0 is 1 when PV end of interrupt is enabled on the vcpu; 0
+	when disabled.  When enabled, bits 63-1 hold 2-byte aligned physical address
+	of a 2 byte memory area which must be in guest RAM and must be zeroed.
+
+	The first, least significant bit of 2 byte memory location will be
+	written to by the hypervisor, typically at the time of interrupt
+	injection.  Value of 1 means that guest can skip writing EOI to the apic
+	(using MSR or MMIO write); instead, it is sufficient to signal
+	EOI by clearing the bit in guest memory - this location will
+	later be polled by the hypervisor.
+	Value of 0 means that the EOI write is required.
+
+	It is always safe for the guest to ignore the optimization and perform
+	the APIC EOI write anyway.
+
+	Hypervisor is guaranteed to only modify this least
+	significant bit while in the current VCPU context, this means that
+	guest does not need to use either lock prefix or memory ordering
+	primitives to synchronise with the hypervisor.
+
+	However, hypervisor can set and clear this memory bit at any time:
+	therefore to make sure hypervisor does not interrupt the
+	guest and clear the least significant bit in the memory area
+	in the window between guest testing it to detect
+	whether it can skip EOI apic write and between guest
+	clearing it to signal EOI to the hypervisor,
+	guest must both read the least sgnificant bit in the memory area and
+	clear it using a single CPU instruction, such as test and clear, or
+	compare and exchange.
+
+the page referred to by the page fault is not
+	present. Value 2 means that the page is now available. Disabling
+	interrupt inhibits APFs. Guest must not enable interrupt
+	before the reason is read, or it may be overwritten by another
+	APF. Since APF uses the same exception vector as regular page
+	fault guest must reset the reason to 0 before it does
+	something that can generate normal page fault.  If during page
+	fault APF reason is 0 it means that this is regular page
+	fault.
+
+	During delivery of type 1 APF cr2 contains a token that will
+	be used to notify a guest when missing page becomes
+	available. When page becomes available type 2 APF is sent with
+	cr2 set to the token associated with the page. There is special
+	kind of token 0xffffffff which tells vcpu that it should wake
+	up all processes waiting for APFs and no individual type 2 APFs
+	will be sent.
+
+	If APF is disabled while there are outstanding APFs, they will
+	not be delivered.
+
+	Currently type 2 APF will be always delivered on the same vcpu as
+	type 1 was, but guest should not rely on that.
