It is worth noticing that this will change 'hart_idx' in the qemu_log_mask() in 
the
end:

    if (result != MEMTX_OK) {
        qemu_log_mask(LOG_GUEST_ERROR, "%s: MSI write failed for "
                      "hart_index=%d guest_index=%d eiid=%d\n",
                      __func__, hart_idx, guest_idx, eiid);
    }


But I believe 'hart_idx' in that context should be the original 'hart_idx' 
parameter,
not the masked value like we're doing today.
