When kvm_pause is called early (from taking the rwlock), it segfaults because the CPU array is initialized slightly later. Fix this. This doesn't happen at the moment but the gicv2m patch will register an MMIO region, which requires br_write_lock. gicv2m is instantiated by kvm__arch_init from within core_init (level 0). The CPU array is initialized later in base_init (level 1).
