See the code comment being added for why we need this. This is being placed here to balance between the desire to prevent future similar issues (the risk of which would grow if it was put further down the call stack, e.g. in vmx_vcpu_destroy()) and the intention to limit the performance impact (otherwise it could also go into rcu_do_batch(), paralleling the use in do_tasklet_work()).
