/*P:800 Interrupts (traps) are complicated enough to earn their own file.
 * There are three classes of interrupts:
 *
 * 1) Real hardware interrupts which occur while we're running the Guest,
 * 2) Interrupts for virtual devices attached to the Guest, and
 * 3) Traps and faults from the Guest.
 *
 * Real hardware interrupts must be delivered to the Host, not the Guest.
 * Virtual interrupts must be delivered to the Guest, but we make them look
 * just like real hardware would deliver them.  Traps from the Guest can be set
 * up to go directly back into the Guest, but sometimes the Host wants to see
 * them first, so we also have a way of "reflecting" them into the Guest as if
 * they had been delivered to it directly. :*/
