I don't think so - now that a VCPU may have several VMCSs (L1, L2), each
of those may be loaded on a different cpu so we have a list of VMCSs
(the new loaded_vmcs structure), not vcpus. When we offline a CPU, we recall
all VMCSs loaded on it from this list, and clear them; We mark cpu=-1 for
each of those vmcs, but vcpu->cpu remains untouched (and not set to -1)
for all the vcpus.

Avi asked me to send the patch that does this *before* nvmx. But he did not
yet merge it.
