Thanks.

Hmm, if that's considered to be potentially useful, then we'd need a
key different from VPF_down. HLT would leave state in place, and the
INIT/SIPI sequence would clobber prior state also only on the 2nd
step. v->is_initialised may be an option, but gets cleared by INIT,
not SIPI. Any other ideas?
