when SMP VM start, AP may lost INIT because of receiving INIT between
kvm_vcpu_ioctl_x86_get/set_vcpu_events.

   vcpu 0                             vcpu 1
                               kvm_vcpu_ioctl_x86_get_vcpu_events
                                       events->smi.latched_init=0
 send INIT to vcpu1
   set vcpu1's pending_events
                               kvm_vcpu_ioctl_x86_set_vcpu_events
                                    events->smi.latched_init == 0
                                      clear INIT in pending_events
I don't think it need set/clear kernel state according to userspace's
info.

This is not correct, you will lose the INIT after live migration. I
just send out another patch to fix it. Thanks for the report.
