I think this causes a regression in x2apic and kvm-msi-ext-dest-id
support. If you start qemu thus:

qemu-system-x86_64 -machine q35,accel=kvm,usb=off,kernel_irqchip=split -cpu 
host -smp 288,sockets=9,cores=16,threads=2

The guest now sees those features, but we don't actually call
kvm_enable_x2apic() so the APIC broadcast quirk doesn't get disabled,
and interrupts targeted at APIC ID 255 are interpreted as broadcasts:
