 *	   idea to ensure that the VCPU has entered a non-critical loop before
 *	   bringing it down. Alternatively, this operation is guaranteed
 *	   synchronous if invoked by the VCPU itself.
 *	2. After a VCPU is initialised, there is currently no way to drop all its
 *	   references to domain memory. Even a VCPU that is down still holds
 *	   memory references via its pagetable base pointer and GDT. It is good
 *	   practise to move a VCPU onto an 'idle' or default page table, LDT and
