NAK. If the interrupt is on the AP list, it must be pruned from it
*immediately*. The only case where it can be !pending and still on the
AP list is in interval between sync and prune. If we start messing
with this, we can't reason about the state of this list anymore.

Consider calling vgic_queue_irq_unlock() here.

Thanks,
