Re: [PATCH v2] KVM: arm64: vgic: Resample HW pending state on deactivation

When a mapped level interrupt (a timer, for example) is deactivated

However, the fate of the pending state still needs to be dealt
with in SW.

This is specially true when the interrupt was in the active+pending
state in the virtual distributor at the point where the guest
was entered. On exit, the pending state is potentially stale
(the guest may have put the interrupt in a non-pending state).

Applied to next, thanks!
