Tell me about it...

Yup. Will fix.

If we've been preempted, we don't execute this code at all, but do a
cache_flush_all instead. But I agree the code is pretty fragile as it
stands, and relies on barriers in the guest (or somewhere else in the
preempting code).

I'll add them, if only for peace of mind...

Yeah! Another 32bit bug to be fixed! ;-)

Thanks,
