Kind of confusing function body given the name. Maybe put

       if (vcpu->arch.mp_state == KVM_MP_STATE_RUNNABLE &&
           !vcpu->arch.apf.halted)
               return vcpu_enter_guest(vcpu);

back in vcpu_run and rename this function? vcpu_wait?

vcpu_run_loop might be a clearer name.

The removal of the loop condition and the addition of these "break"s
change the loop behavior slightly, but I think it's safe. We'll start
breaking before checking need_resched(), but we're about to return to
userspace anyway so we'll reschedule then.
