Yes, we do. We have code for local APIC (mostly in Xen) and IO APIC
device models (in qemu-dm) in preparation for SMP VMX guests. Since
guests don't explicitly send EOI to IO APIC upon timer interrupts, we
are also hoping it would reduce the traffic between qemu-dm. We'll send
out the patch shortly once more testing is done.
