should be possible.  Eventually I was thinking if we really need EISR as
well?  Could we not deduct that if we have an incative LR from a struct
vgic_irq that is CONFIG_LEVEL where we wrote the LR to either
pending/active on entry, then an EOI has happened and we should signal
the kvm_notify_acked_irq()...
