Parts of the posted interrupt descriptor configure host behavior,
such as the notification vector and destination. Overwriting them
with zero as done during vCPU reset breaks posted interrupts.
KVM (re-)writes these fields on certain occasions and belatedly fixes
the situation in many cases. However, if you have a guest configured
with "idle=poll", for example, the fields might stay zero forever.

Do not reset the full descriptor in vmx_vcpu_reset(). Instead,
reset only the outstanding notifications and leave everything
else untouched.
