I can't parse that sentence so I'm not sure. But if you have
successfully migrated the interrupt/evtchn to a different vcpu, then
there's no subsequent risk of lost events. The event loss can only
happen in the circumstance I mentioned earlier: when you migrate while
an event is being handled, and a second event occurs on the new cpu
before the first one has finished. So you need both bad timing and a
fairly high event delivery rate to trigger the problem.
