Excuse me, I don't see the problem.

The caller of paravirq_init_chip() provides irq_mask/irq_unmask
function pointers only once, and paravirq_init_chip() saves them in
.irq_mask/.irq_unmask fields of struct irq_chip paravirq_chip.

When later, for example, disable_irq() is called for one of several irqs
allocated in paravirq irq_domain, paravirq_chip->irq_mask() is called
with struct irq_desc *desc argument corresponding to that particular irq.

I.e. our irq_mask()/irq_unmask() callbacks get irq_desc of the interrupt
which should be masked/unmasked and can ask the hypervisor to stop/start
injecting the vector of that particular interrupt.
