Ahh yes that triggered it.

Because looking at the order things happen in the specific CPU realisation:

    qemu_init_vcpu(cs);
    cpu_reset(cs);

    acc->parent_realize(dev, errp);

And the common realize function doesn't get to do:

    /* Plugin initialization must wait until the cpu start executing code */
#ifdef CONFIG_PLUGIN
    if (tcg_enabled()) {
        cpu->plugin_state = qemu_plugin_create_vcpu_state();
        async_run_on_cpu(cpu, qemu_plugin_vcpu_init__async, RUN_ON_CPU_NULL);
    }
#endif

before we've started executing.....
