Currently we check prior to returning from a lightweight exit,

book3s already does a similar test.

Any reason you're doing this after irq_disable()?
If we get a signal after the check, we want to be sure that we don't
receive the reschedule IPI until after we're in the guest, so that it
will cause another signal check.

Makes sense. So the current book3s implementation is wrong?
