Why not call these FORWARD/UNFORWARD or something since the operation isn't really doing anything with assignment of the IRQ.

I'm a little confused that were using an arch structure here rather than trying to keep the kvm-vfio device interface neutral. Maybe it makes sense, I'm not sure.

I will move much more things on the generic side then then assuming that someone in the future may use such functionality. Actually the only ARM specific implementation is the GIC interrupt controller programming. As far as I see the rest is generic, in terms of API. Thanks Eric Maybe it makes sense, I'm > not sure.
