QEMU indeed does set_one_reg to reset the VPAs but that only marks
the VPA update as pending. The actual unpinning happens when vcpu
gets to run after reset at which time the VPAs are updated after
any unpinning (if required)

When secure guest reboots, vpu 0 gets to run and does unpin its
VPA pages and then proceeds with switching to secure. Here UV
tries to page-in all the guest pages, including the still pinned
VPA pages corresponding to other vcpus which haven't had a chance
to run till now. They are all still pinned and hence page-in fails.

To prevent this, we have to explicitly unpin the VPA pages during
this svm off ioctl. This will ensure that SMP secure guest is able
to reboot correctly.

So I will incorporate the code chunk you have shown above to fail
if any vcpu is running and prevent any vcpu from running when
we unpin VPAs from this ioctl.
