Okay, I think I found another problem. Currently the setup looks like
this:
- PHYSDEVOP_setup_gsi: set trigger and polarity, unmask pin
- PHYSDEVOP_map_pirq: map to pirq, set irq handler to guest

If an interrupt fires between this two calles, what happens?

Usually I would do the setup the other way around. This would also make
it possible to use the irq table to allow the kernel to only set IO-APIC
pins mapped to already properly registered interrupts.
