BTW, I want to make it sure that because kvm_lapic will be destroyed before vcpu, so it is safe to bypass the access path there, and the situation is the same in async_pf for we have called kvm_clear_async_pf_completion_queue before zapping vcpu. Am I right? As to the scene like bsp_vcpu, I think that introducing refcount like in V2 can handle it easier. Please help to review these changes in V4 which I will send a little later.
