Basically, I agree your suggestion in Linux guest. But in Windows
guest, PV-driver can't get vector with own driver interface. So, I
think that HV has to have the interfaces about callback irq in both
cases, using GSI and Vector.
BTW, in my experience, the vector doesn't set to VIOSAPIC at
HVMOP_set_param hypercall. Thus I'll implement to find the GSI at
interrupt injection phase.
