On POWER9, when userspace reads the value of the DPDES register on a vCPU, it is possible for 0 to be returned although there is a doorbell interrupt pending for the vCPU. This can lead to a doorbell interrupt being lost across migration. If the guest kernel uses doorbell interrupts for IPIs, then it could malfunction because of the lost interrupt. This happens because a newly-generated doorbell interrupt is signalled by setting vcpu->arch.doorbell_request to 1; the DPDES value in vcpu->arch.vcore->dpdes is not updated, because it can only be updated when holding the vcpu mutex, in order to avoid races. To fix this, we OR in vcpu->arch.doorbell_request when reading the DPDES value.
