Hello, I try to explain the current state on my pc.
1) The patch KVM 1/2 was applied with the following change. The files "drivers/pci/iova.h" and "drivers/pci/intel-iommu.h" already exists. And I get both files rejected. So I take the headers from the KVM 1/2 Patchfile and use these a "iova.h" and "intel-iommu.h". Kernel compiles without errors. 2) What known bug is in the latest userspace patchfile?

On both PCI-Cards (1) APCI1500 Signal processing controller and (2) Realtek NIC the IRQ is shared with my USB-UHCI-Controller. On this PC there is no PS2-Connector (USB-Mouse/USB-Keyboard). When I unload the usb module on the host, I can not handle the system anymore. I can start qemu/kvm remote over a serial-console. But then I cannot use the guest system without keyboard/mouse. (login and so) "Han, Weidong" told to use IRQF_SHARED in reqeust_irq(). In which code? Both tests are only made to get an idea how it works with other devices. My primary efforts are to use my onboard Gigabit with VT-d direct on the Windows guest-system. This device don't share the IRQ with an other device. But I have the problems with: 1) slow down the complete system and generate this Unbalanced IRQ 21 messages. 2) Packet statistic under windows shows on this device no package traffic in live-network. (no ping etc. possible) Thanks for your hints.
