I'd rather have calls to avic_vcpu_load/avic_vcpu_put directly inside 
the "if (activated)", and leaving avic_set_running to its current 
implementation.  That way you don't need __avic_set_running (which is a 
confusing name, because it does more than just setting the running bit).

Should this be a separate patch?

As an aside, we have

static inline bool kvm_vcpu_apicv_active(struct kvm_vcpu *vcpu)
{
         return vcpu->arch.apic && vcpu->arch.apicv_active;
}

but really vcpu->arch.apicv_active should never be true if 
vcpu->arch.apic is.  So it should be possible to change this to "return 
vcpu->arch.apicv_active" with a comment that the serialization between 
apicv_inhibit_reasons and apicv_active happens via apicv_update_lock.

Thanks,

Paolo
