kvm_set_cr0 may want to call kvm_zap_gfn_range and thus access the
memslots array (SRCU protected). Using a mini SRCU critical section
is ugly, and adding it to kvm_arch_vcpu_create doesn't work because
the VMX vcpu_create callback calls synchronize_srcu.
Fixes this lockdep splat:
===============================
