After the primary vcpu changes vcore_state to VCORE_RUNNING, there is very little chance to schedule to secondary vcpu. So if we change the code sequence around set vcore_state to VCORE_RUNNING and disable preemption, we lost little. But we simplify the entering logi, based on the fact that if primary vcpu runs, the secondary vcpu can not be scheduled.
