A comment here would be useful to document the behavior. e.g.
/*
* Wait for all stage-2 page tables that are being freed
* asynchronously via RCU callback because ...
*/
Speaking of, what's the reason for this rcu_barrier()? Is there any
reason why KVM can't let in-flight stage-2 freeing RCU callbacks run at
the end of the next grace period?
