If we need to inject an MSI into the guest, we rely at the moment on a
working GSI MSI routing functionality. However we can get away without
IRQ routing, if the host supports MSI injection via the KVM_SIGNAL_MSI
ioctl.
So we try the GSI routing first, but if that fails due to a missing
IRQ routing functionality, we fall back to KVM_SIGNAL_MSI (if that is
supported).
