Of course, you're right. The LR state is not used at all for a physical
interrupt (the HW bit really says "use the distributor").

I've given it more thoughts last night, and I think we can solve this is
a fairly simple way. In the scenario you outline, we do not observe the
ACTIVE to INACTIVE transition because the interrupt has fired again,
leaving the interrupt flagged as queued.

I think we can clear the "queued" bit on injection, as we're guaranteed
that seeing a new interrupt is the proof that the previous one has been
deactivated (how could we see it otherwise?).

How about the following (untested) patch:

Thoughts?
