Oh I think I see what you meant.  Sounds good then.

Shall we hide that into vm_prepare_start()?  It seems three's still one
more call sites that always pass in RUNNING (gdb_continue_partial).

If with above, vm_prepare_start() will go into either RUNNING, SUSPENDED,
or an error.  It returns 0 only if RUNNING, -1 for all the rest.  Maybe we
can already also touch up the retval of vm_prepare_start() to be a boolean,
reflecting "whether vcpu needs to be started".
