I have no idea what an IRTE is. But not having an VLPI mapping for an
interrupt at the point where we're tearing down the forwarding is
pretty benign. IRQs *still* go where they should, and we don't lose
anything.

What it may mean is that userspace and the guest may have done things
in the wrong order for KVM to accelerate interrupt delivery. That's
silly, but also completely harmless.
