New Revision: 291851
URL: https://svnweb.freebsd.org/changeset/base/291851

Log:
  It seems that at least some KVM versions advertise support for EIO
  suppression but the version of the IOAPIC reported is 0x11 and neither
  IOAPIC EOIR nor the Linux trick of temporal reprogramming of the pin
  to edge-trigger mode to issue EOI work.
  
  Disable eoi suppression if KVM is detected.  The mode can still be
  forced with the tunable.
