The question is not clear to me too.
On Xen 4.4 the injection on vcpu != current happens by sending an SGI at
the end of vgic_vcpu_inject_irq. Then on the other vcpu
leave_hypervisor_tail will call gic_inject that is going to take care of
injecting the interrupt.
On Xen 4.5 vgic_vcpu_inject_irq also sends an SGI to the other vcpu,
which is going to clear old LRs from enter_hypervisor_head and inject
new interrupts from gic_inject, still called by leave_hypervisor_tail.
