Subject: [PATCH] x86_64 irq: Use irq_domain in ioapic_retrigger_irq


Thanks to YH Lu for spotting this.  It appears I missed
this function when I refactored allocate_irq_vector and
introduced irq_domain, with the result that all retriggered
irqs would go to cpu 0 even if we were not prepared to
receive them there.

While reviewing YH's patch I also noticed that this function was
missing locking, and since I am now reading two values from
two diffrent arrays that looks like a race we might be able
to hit in the real world.
