There's a lock ordering issue here. KVM currently takes kvm_lock inside
cpu_hotplug_lock, but this code does the opposite. I need to take a closer look
at the locking, as I'm not entirely certain that the existing ordering is correct
or ideal. E.g. cpu_hotplug_lock is taken when updating static keys, static calls,
etc., which makes taking cpu_hotplug_lock outside kvm_lock dicey, as flows that
take kvm_lock then need to be very careful to never trigger seemingly innocuous
updates.

And this lockdep splat that I've now hit twice with the current implementation
suggests that cpu_hotplug_lock => kvm_lock is already unsafe/broken (I need to
re-decipher the splat; I _think_ mostly figured it out last week, but then forgot
over the weekend).
