domctl updates both the map and the status. I.e. in the toolstack it
looks like

    /*Update VCPU map. */
    rc = xc_acpi_iowrite(CTX->xch, domid, XEN_ACPI_CPU_MAP,
                         cpumap->size, cpumap->map);
    if (!rc) {
        /* Send an SCI. */
        uint16_t val = 1 << XEN_ACPI_GPE0_CPUHP_BIT;
        rc = xc_acpi_iowrite(CTX->xch, domid, ACPI_GPE0_BLK_ADDRESS_V1,
                             sizeof(val), &val);
    }


I'll make a note in the commit message of the fact that both are accessed.

OTOH, maybe we should have an update to the map trigger the SCI and not
require the toolstack to do so?
