It definitely fixes a bug. This has been found by running a KVM guest
using kvmtool PCI emulation, where the following things happen:

- Guest programs a virtual (bogus) interrupt number in the PCI device
config space (virtio disk in this case)
- kvmtool uses that interrupt number as is, without any other form of
validation
- Either the injection fails (because the interrupt is out of the range
of the virtual interrupt controller) -> virtio PCI device goes dead
- or the injection succeeds because this is a valid interrupt number,
but signals an unrelated peripheral -> virtio PCI device goes dead.

This can be trivially reproduced on any ARM PCI system that requires
legacy interrupts (i.e. no MSI support), and that uses a GIC interrupt
controller. Doing it in a VM is just much more convenient.

Hope this helps,
