We probably need to disable vmx on all CPUs, but emergency reboot skips
native_smp_send_stop() (where we could hook a virt_disable call in).

As relying on IPIs defeats the whole point of emergency_restart, a proper
fix will need to use NMIs like the kdump code does.

They should use the same code; they have a similar environment at entry and reliability requirements for e_r are not greater than kdump's.
