Stop cpus before devices when stopping the VM, start cpus after devices
when starting VM.  Otherwise a vcpu could access a stopped device.

IIRC we decided this was unnecessary since everything is under qemu_mutex. However we might want to be on the safe side here and be similar to master.

Yes, it is not necessary. Since upstream is already on the safe side
(and the plan is to merge with it), IMO better leave this patch out.

Maybe it ought to be reverted from master then?
