The call to sync_pir_to_irr belongs more in vcpu_scan_ioapic, I think.
More importantly, I think that KVM_REQ_EVENT is a latent bug for
kvm_vcpu_ioctl_get_lapic as well, so the call to kvm_make_request should
go in vmx_sync_pir_to_irr or in a new kvm_sync_pir_to_irr wrapper.

Should we test again here that kvm_irq_has_notifier(ioapic->kvm,
KVM_IRQCHIP_IOAPIC, index), to avoid unnecessarily marking other
edge-triggered interrupts?
