pseries VMs in shared processor mode are susceptible to failed
migrations becasue stray H_PRODs from the paravirt spinlock
implementation can bump threads out of joining state before the
suspend has occurred. Fix this by adding a small amount of shared
state and ordering accesses to it with respect to H_PROD and H_JOIN.
