How does this work when multiple vcpus are crashing at once? Are you
guaranteed to be single-threaded at this point?

How about reporting useful information, a pointer to some data
structure describing the fault? As it is, the usefulness of this is
pretty dubious.

Why is this in the arch-specific code? Yes, it lives in the x86 arch
code too, but I don't see what prevents it from being moved to the
vmbus_drv.c code.
