So this turns off the vPMU globally upon failure of initializing
some random vCPU. Why is that? I see this was the case even
before your entire series, but shouldn't this be fixed _before_
enhancing the whole thing to support PV/PVH?
Yes, that's probably too strong. Do you want to fix this as an early
patch (before PV(H)) support gets in? I'd rather do it in the patch that
moves things into initcalls.
