You're right that it isn't reachable in normal operation. The deferral (load_eoi_exitmap_pending) is what kept it off the L2 path, and ripping that out reads cleaner than adding the guard alone, so your version is the better fix. My changelog was wrong about the trigger and about vmx_sync_pir_to_irr(); sorry for the noise there. Thanks for the Reported-by. Would you like me to test your version (nested VID with APICv active, deferral removed) before it goes in? Thanks, Amirmohammad
