Similar to what you had mentioned over on the lock (un)inversion series,
doesn't this risk racing with vCPU creation w/o holding the kvm->lock?

Alternatively you could require this ioctl to be issued before any vCPUs
are created to avoid the need to lock them all here. But, if you see
value in poking this at runtime then fine by me.
