As far as I can tell, when we use posted interrupts we silently cut off the events from userspace, if it's listening on the same eventfd that feeds the irqfd. I like that behaviour. Let's do it all the time, even without posted interrupts. It makes it much easier to handle IRQ remapping invalidation without having to constantly add/remove the fd from the userspace poll set. We can just leave userspace polling on it, and the bypass will... well... bypass it.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
