The kernel uses it (pcpu_running()) to decide whether
- To send an emergency call or an external call (external calls are
  faster when the CPU is already running - e.g., SIE HW assist)
- In arch_vcpu_is_preempted(), for an heuristic

So nothing actually breaks (as I explained, only used for performance
optimizations)
