Good catch. I think the diff won't work when vcpu is runnable. It only
tries to catch the vcpu block case. Even for the vcpu block case,  the
check of KVM_REQ_UNBLOCK is way too late. Ah, kvm_vcpu_check_block()
is called by kvm_vcpu_block() which is called by vcpu_block(). The
warning is triggered at the very beginning of vcpu_block(), i.e.,
within kvm_arch_vcpu_runnable(). So, please ignore the trace in my
previous email.

In addition, my minor push back for that is
vcpu->arch.nested_get_pages_pending seems to be another
KVM_REQ_GET_NESTED_STATE_PAGES.

Thanks.
