That wouldn't be required anymore with the "always queue" policy.
Hmm, unless we need mp_state manipulation analogously to KVM_NMI vs.
KVM_SET_VCPU_STATE: The former will queue, the latter write, but may be
overwritten by anything queued. If you just queue KVM_SET_MP_STATE, you
still have a conflict between concurrent manipulations from user space,
something we want to resolve automagically.
The idea is to queue. But queueing INIT state clears the queue (we're
pretending to send an INIT signal over the apic bus).
