[Xen-devel] [PATCH v5 RESEND 02/17] VPMU: Mark context LOADED before registers are loaded



Because a PMU interrupt may be generated as soon as PMU registers are loaded 
(or,
more precisely, as soon as HW PMU is "armed") we don't want to delay marking
context as LOADED until after registers are loaded. Otherwise during interrupt
handling VPMU_CONTEXT_LOADED may not be set and this could be confusing.

(Technically, only SVM needs this change right now since VMX will "arm" PMU 
later,
during VMRUN when global control register is loaded from VMCS. However, both
AMD and Intel code will require this patch when we introduce PV VPMU).
