It turns out that we can't handle event channels *entirely* in userspace by delivering them as ExtINT, because KVM is a bit picky about when it accepts ExtINT interrupts from a legacy PIC. The in-kernel local APIC has to have LVT0 configured in APIC_MODE_EXTINT and unmasked, which isn't necessarily the case for Xen guests especially on secondary CPUs. To cope with this, add kvm_xen_get_interrupt() which checks the evtchn_pending_upcall field in the Xen vcpu_info, and delivers the Xen upcall vector (configured by KVM_XEN_ATTR_TYPE_UPCALL_VECTOR) if it's set regardless of LAPIC LVT0 configuration. This gives us the minimum support we need for completely userspace-based implementation of event channels. This does mean that vcpu_enter_guest() needs to check for the evtchn_pending_upcall flag being set, because it can't rely on someone having set KVM_REQ_EVENT unless we were to add some way for userspace to do so manually.
