(I think that smp_mb here would make sense, even though we're fine now
thanks to re-checking vcpu->mode in kvm_vcpu_kick.
Right, though only a smp_mb__after_atomic() is required (which is a
compiler barrier). It is similarly required in vmx.
True, kvm_lapic_set_vector uses a lock prefix.
(I thought it behaves like atomic_set, which would require MFENCE for
correct ordering here ... I don't like smp_mb__after_atomic much
because of the discrepancy on some atomic operations.)
So, should i just use smb_mb() in this case?
