I don't really agree with above statement.  Please correct me if I am wrong.  In
all modern x86 interrupt infrastructure(lapic/ioapic), for level triggered
interrupt, the sequence is always EOI (LAPIC), which is called interrupt ack in
the context of this discussion, then unmask (IOAPIC).  Oneshot interrupt is
different only because the timing of above 2 events are different from a
"normal" level-triggered interrupt.  It is like for level interrupt:  Hardirq ->
EOI -> Unmask but for oneshot, it is like: hardirq->EOI, then sometime later
threadedirq->unmask.  So based on this, I don't think you need to keep track of
whether the interrupt is unmasked or not, just need to call the notifier at the
end of unmask, instead of EOI.  And calling notifier at the end of unmask,
instead of EOI won't break non-oneshot case.  The only caveat is guest ioapic
update (virq unmask) doesn't cause vmexit.  But the assumption is already made
that virq unmask causes vmexit.
