If ms_hyperv_msi_ext_dest_id() returns "true", then
hyperv_prepare_irq_remapping() will still return -ENODEV and you
won't get interrupt remapping because it isn't needed, at least not
for guest VMs. Is that what we want for the root partition? Or does
ms_hyperv_msi_ext_dest_id() only return true in a guest partition,
and not in the root partition? See commit d981059e13ff.
