The assumption here is that we're coming vgic_v4_configure_vsgis(),
which starts
by stopping the whole guest. My guess is that it should be safe 
enough, but
maybe you are thinking of something else?
I don't have a specific case in mind. Just preferred asking to make
sure. Usually when touching those fields we take the lock (that's also
the case in vgic_debug_show for instance).
Ah, good thing you mention the debug interface. I think it is the only
thing that can run behind our back... Fair enough, I'll add the locking.

Thanks,

         M.
