I tried, but that requires the definition of struct kvm_vcpu to be
visible.  I failed to get that here without circular #include problems,
and it looked tricky to fix.

Since this is a small bit of code which is unlikely to get used by
accident, I decided it was OK to keep it as a macro.

Can you see another way around this?
