[PATCH v2] KVM: x86: Check irqchip mode before create PIT

From: Tengfei Yu
Date: Thu Jan 25 2024 - 00:09:30 EST


As the kvm api(https://docs.kernel.org/virt/kvm/api.html) reads,
KVM_CREATE_PIT2 call is only valid after enabling in-kernel irqchip
support via KVM_CREATE_IRQCHIP.

Without this check, I can create PIT first and enable irqchip-split
then, which may cause the PIT invalid because of lacking of in-kernel
PIC to inject the interrupt.
