This is the (tested) minimal fix for the xen 4.1.1 hypervisor. The
problem with the more complete patch against 4.2 is that it needs to
keep the number of "lost" interrupts per pirq. It does that by adding an
element to the pirq struct (which does not exist in 4.1.1). So for the
backport of that one would need to find a good place to keep those
counters. Not sure whether for example the domain info could be extended
without causing some bad interaction. I may try that or we just go with
the minimal approach (which does not fix a related gap in handling
passthrough devices). At least that fixes the more obvious issues.
