I would think so, yes. Be careful about locking/barriers and
initialization, though.

Then I suggest wording it something like:

Sounds good, I'll have a look when it has been reworked.

Ok, perhaps this comment is more clear if it simply states:
At this point the IRQ is marked as non-forwarded.

I don't think we should ever set the level field for edge-triggered
IRQs.

how do we know this?

you can also be before (1), no ?

Isn't the point here simply that if you disconnect the virtual IRQ from
the that of the physical device, then you reset the state by clearing
the LR and if this virtual IRQ is to be used again as a purely virtual
IRQ or forwarding is configured again, then it must be re-injected?
If so, I think the comment can simply be:
Since we are changing this IRQ from fowarded to non-fowarded, reset its
state.

ok, fair enough for the pending state (deserves a comment though), but I
don't see why you'd need to set the level field? If there is no
connected virtual device that lowers the line afterwards, you'll keep
injecting this IRQ indefinitely I think.

is this actually true for the level field? It shouldn't, should it?

I guess, but then the comment could say that, "make sure this looks like
a regular virtual interrupt" or something like that.

me too, it's hard.
