Subject: [PATCH] PCI: hv: fix "spurious APIC interrupt" due to new vector
 reservation mode

Last month the vector management code was reworked, and as a result of the
changes, e.g. commit 22d0b12f3560 ("genirq/irqdomain: Add force
reactivation flag to irq domains"), commit 4900be83602b ("x86/vector/msi:
Switch to global reservation mode") etc, now we must add this new flag
MSI_FLAG_MUST_REACTIVATE when calling pci_msi_create_irq_domain() on x86,
otherwise Hyper-V PCIe pass-through can't work, and we get:
"spurious APIC interrupt through vector ff on CPU#0, should never happen",
this is because no valid MSI/MSI-X vector is allocated.

Currently the "reservation mode" patchset has not been in Linus's tree yet, so
today's mainline hasn't shown the issue, but today's linux-next has shown the
issue (PCIe pass-through on Hyper-V can't work).

I think any caller of pci_msi_create_irq_domain() that runs on x86 needs to
be updated, but besides pci-hyper I'm not sure which callers run on x86.
