If you're preempted, vcpu_put will be called. See kvm_preempt_ops in
virt/kvm/kvm_main.c.

here, you do:
ldr r4, HCPTR_TTA
vfp_skip_if_dirty skip_vfp_trap
orr r4, r4, #(HCPTR_TCP(10) | HCPTR_TCP(11))
skip_vfp_trap:
set_hcptr vmentry, r4
if that works with the necessary rework of set_hcptr to take a register,
if the orr can be encoded propertly etc. Maybe it's not worth it, it
just feels weird to touch this registers twice. Perhaps the nicer fix
is to just rename/refactor set_hcptr to be two functions, set_hcptr_bits
and clear_hcptr_bits.
