I agree with others' comments about MSI would be the ultimate solution.
In the short term, a simple stop gap meausre might be to check the
interrupt status bit in device's PCI config before delivering it
to the guest. I found interrupt sharing with low interrupt device
such as non-storage USB is not much a problem.
It is a problem when sharing the interrupt with high freqency interrupt
devices such as SATA. The problem I encountered was the xen tried to
deliver interrupt to the guest before the guest was fully ready to
accept interrupts.
