So pLPIs must be routed at device assignment time because in the vLPI

I just remembered the exact reason that made use to differ SPI enabling.
When the device is assigned, the domain VCPUs are still down (even VCPU0).
If we receive an interrupt before the VCPU0 is unpaused, the interrupt
will be lost. Same if the interrupt is not yet configured (i.e before
the vITS setup correctly the table) with your proposal.
This could happen when the device is not quiescent. We had this issue on
the vexpress at boot time when the network card was trying to send an
interrupt before DOM0 is setup.
