The pciback has logic to call this:

1666 /* Check whether the IRQ line is shared with other guests. */
1667 int xen_test_irq_shared(int irq)
1668 {
1669         struct irq_info *info = info_for_irq(irq);
1670         struct physdev_irq_status_query irq_status = { .irq = 
info->u.pirq.pirq };
1671 
1672         if (HYPERVISOR_physdev_op(PHYSDEVOP_irq_status_query, &irq_status))
1673                 return 0;
1674         return !(irq_status.flags & XENIRQSTAT_shared);
1675 }
1676 EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(xen_test_irq_shared);


to figure out whether it needs to Ack the interrupt line in dom0 - to avoid
those 'nobody cared' errors.

Could it be that the XENIRQSTAT_shared is not being stampted anymore?
