nit: the naming feels a bit... odd. Pre/post what?

This comment looks out of place, as we aren't flushing anything.

Isn't this going to warn like mad on a GICv4.0 system where this, by 
definition,
will generate an error?

This bit worries me: you have unmapped the VPEs, so any interrupt that 
has been
generated during that phase is now forever lost (the GIC doesn't have 
ownership
of the pending tables).

Do you really expect the VM to be restartable from that point? I don't 
see how
this is possible.
