I wonder if there's a way we can guard against kvm_init()/kvm_exit() being called
too early/late.  x86 had similar bugs for a very long time, e.g. see commit
e32b120071ea ("KVM: VMX: Do _all_ initialization before exposing /dev/kvm to userspace").

E.g. maybe we do something like create+destroy a VM at the end of kvm_init() and
the beginning of kvm_exit()?  Not sure if that would work for kvm_exit(), but it
should definitely be fine for kvm_init().

It wouldn't prevent bugs, but maybe it would help detect them during development?
