I actually don't understand the idea behind KVM_REQ_UNHALT?

It seems there's a semantic difference that architectures should adhere
by when returning from kvm_vcpu_block() with or without KVM_REQ_UNHALT
set (i.e. if the vcpu was runnable when kvm_vcpu_check_blocK() was
called?) - can you explain what the deal is?  Perhaps that belongs in
the documentation patch.
