From: Raghavendra K T <raghavendra.kt@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Note that we are using APIC_DM_REMRD which has reserved usage.
In future if APIC_DM_REMRD usage is standardized, then we should
find some other way or go back to old method.

Need to make sure that delivery_mode cannot be set to APIC_DM_REMRD
from MSI/IOAPIC/IPI path.

I Gleb,
I need your help here since I do not know much about apic.

so are you saying explicitly checking that, kvm_set_msi_irq, apic_send_ipi, native_setup_ioapic_entry, does not have APIC_DM_REMRD as delivery_mode set?
