For forwarded IRQ there is no modeled queued state (same as edge). The
pending state is reset as soon as the vIRQ gets queued, in
vgic_queue_hwirq (also same as edge). This modeling makes sure the vIRQ
is injected once. I did not model the pending state since the above
modeling looks simple and modeling the queued state did not work
properly: I observed new forwarded IRQ could hit before the LR was seen
cleaned. So overall, to me, current model looks closer to edge sensitive
IRQs and looks simple & reliable compared to attempting to model any
queued state.

forwarded IRQs are directly linked to HW IRQs. If the forwarded IRQ is
received this means the guest completed last HW IRQ occurence and it is
valid to inject the new one so following the discussions we had with
Marc I skipped that check.

It is equal to me. Let me know what is your preference according to
above comment.
