KVM handles that case, it's just convoluted.
(I wish we scrapped the IR-less x2APIC mode.)

For interrupts from MSI and IOxAPIC:
- Flat logical interrupts are delivered as if we had natural
  (CPU0<->bit0, CPU1<->bit1, ...) flat logical xAPIC for first 8 VCPUs.
- Cluster logical doesn't work much, it's interpreted like flat logical.
  I didn't care about xAPIC cluster because Linux, the sole user of our
  paravirtualized x2APIC, doesn't configure it.

I'll paste kvm_apic_mda() source for better explanation:

  static u32 kvm_apic_mda(unsigned int dest_id, struct kvm_lapic *source,
                                                struct kvm_lapic *target)
  {
  	bool ipi = source != NULL;
  	bool x2apic_mda = apic_x2apic_mode(ipi ? source : target);
  
  	if (!ipi && dest_id == APIC_BROADCAST && x2apic_mda)
  		return X2APIC_BROADCAST;
  
  	return x2apic_mda ? dest_id : SET_APIC_DEST_FIELD(dest_id);
  }

MSI/IOxAPIC interrupt means that source is NULL and if the target is in
x2APIC mode, the original 'dest_id' is returned as mda => a flat logical
xAPIC to 0x0f will get interpreted as (cluster) logical x2APIC 0xf in
kvm_apic_match_logical_addr().
xAPIC address are only 8 bit long so they always get delivered to x2APIC
cluster 0, where first 16 bits work like xAPIC flat logical mode.
