Right, but it's only for the timer as timer is "shared" between Xen and
dom0 (ie: we fake the timer IRQs).

vtimer will manually inject the virtual IRQ as IRQs are forwarded to the
running vCPU. gic_route_irq_to_guest will always route to a specific domain.

I though to add a new value for dt_used_by which parse the device node
IRQ/range but not map them in the domain. Because we don't need to know
if the IRQ is a PPI after the end of construct_dom0.

Will be fixed on the next version of the patch.
