Need to be able to get hang state back out for debug. Maybe not merge blocker

anholt pushed a commit that referenced this issue Oct 6, 2017
commit 3898da9 ("KVM: avoid using rcu_dereference_protected") can
trigger the following lockdep/rcu splat if the VM_CREATE ioctl fails,
for example if kvm_arch_init_vm fails:

WARNING: suspicious RCU usage
4.13.0+ #105 Not tainted
-----------------------------
./include/linux/kvm_host.h:481 suspicious rcu_dereference_check() usage!

other info that might help us debug this:

rcu_scheduler_active = 2, debug_locks = 1
no locks held by qemu-system-s39/79.
stack backtrace:

We have to reset the just created users_count back to 0 to
tell the check to not trigger.
