When setting the forwarding path of a VLPI (switch to the HW mode),
we could also transfer the pending state from irq->pending_latch to
VPT (especially in migration, the pending states of VLPIs are restored
into kvm’s vgic first). And we currently send "INT+VSYNC" to trigger
a VLPI to pending.

Why do this if pending_latch is 0, which is likely to be
the overwhelming case?

What guarantees the pruning? Pruning only happens on vcpu exit,
which means we may have the same interrupt via both the LR and
the stream interface, which I don't believe is legal (it is
like having two LRs holding the same interrupt).

Thanks,
