When a guest unmasks MSI-X interrupts before enabling MSI-X on the
device, so far nothing updates the {host,guest}_masked internal state;
this to date only gets done when MSI-X is already enabled. This is why
half way recent Linux works (as it enables MSI-X first), while Windows
doesn't (as it enables MSI-X only after having set up und unmasked all
vectors). Since with a successful write to the vector control field
everything is ready internally, we should also update internal tracking
state there, regardless of the device's MSI-X enabled state.

Wei,

just noticed I forgot to Cc you on this one, which definitely is
intended for 4.7 (along with the other two MSI related ones).
