 Debugging code can be added to apic_write() and io_apic_{write,modify}()  
so that a warning is output into the kernel log whenever a suspicious
value is written to one of the vector registers.  Similarly for MSI/HT
interrupts, although I do not know names of the functions involved off the
head.  Due to performance considerations it is unfortunately infeasible to
have such debugging enabled in production kernels.
