If using the suggested (but not provided) higher level function from patch 14 this could be:
                 vgic_unlock_aplist_irq(, spinlock_t irq);

And this whole block could be replaced by:
                 vgic_lock_cpu_aplist_pair(vcpuA, vcpuB)

And this could be:
                 vgic_unlock_cpu_aplist_pair(vcpuA, vcpuB)
