It's the traditional LAPIC based EOI mechanism that Xen intercepts
(as necessary) on the guest side and then translates (via
surprisingly many layers of calls) into the necessary EOI /
unmask / whatever at the hardware level. Our vIO-APIC
implementation so far doesn't support IO-APIC based EOI at all
(which is reflected in the IO-APIC version ID being 0x11).
