Commit message for fuzzing bugs have usually included a beautified
reproducer. However, you are not even saying if it is a race, or it is
deterministic.

The fix seems wrong to me at first impression, because "LAPIC enabled"
and "irqchip not split" should imply the existence of an in-kernel
IOAPIC. However, I cannot suggest the right course of action without
seeing a testcase.
