Using the new accel-blocker API, mark where ioctls are being called
in KVM. Next, we will implement the critical section that will take
care of performing memslots modifications atomically, therefore
preventing any new ioctl from running and allowing the running ones
to finish.

You might want to drop that and instead mention something like "This
patch is based on a protoype patch by David Hildenbrand".

I recall that I had some additional patches that tried to catch some of
more calls:
