It appears that if the APLIC target register's value is modified during the MSI interrupt sending process, it could potentially lead to MSI interrupt send failures. The code doesn't seem to account for this scenario or take appropriate measures.

This has been taken care of in the IMSIC driver in the irq_set_affinity()
because the IMSIC driver manages the re-writing of MSI messages
upon IRQ affinity changes.

Please look at PATCH7 and PATCH8 of the "[PATCH v11 00/14] Linux
RISC-V AIA Support" series.
