I'll have this test tried out.. but in msi_set_affinity() the check below
for lapic_vector_set_in_irr(cfg->vector), this is the new vector correct? 
don't we want to check for old_cfg.vector instead?

msi_set_affinit ()
{
....


        unlock_vector_lock();

        /*
         * Check whether the transition raced with a device interrupt and
         * is pending in the local APICs IRR. It is safe to do this outside
         * of vector lock as the irq_desc::lock of this interrupt is still
         * held and interrupts are disabled: The check is not accessing the
         * underlying vector store. It's just checking the local APIC's
         * IRR.
         */
        if (lapic_vector_set_in_irr(cfg->vector))
                irq_data_get_irq_chip(irqd)->irq_retrigger(irqd);
