It appears that under some cirumstances, the lifetime of a vcpu
doesn't correctly align with that of the structure describing the
redistributor associated with that vcpu. That's not great.
Fixing it is, unfortunately, not as trivial as it appears as the
required locking gets in the way.
The first two patches in this series amend that locking so that the
third patch, which is the actual fix, becomes almost trivial. The last
two patches are more cosmetic and only add assertions that helped me
debugging the whole thing.
I've earmarked the first 3 patches as stable candidates, and would
love to see them in 6.7. Patches on top of -rc4.
