Hmm, these patches dont fit on kvm.git so I tested the version from 
linux-next.

When using linux-next in a kvm guest on a linux-next host this patch set 
really improves the situation. On a guest with 64 cpus on a 1 cpu host 
stop_machine_run seems to finish immediately. 

I still have some strange problems with 25 guests * 64 cpus on one host cpu, 
but this requires further analysis.

IMHO this patch set is really an improvement to the earlier version:
