Yeah, it's fixed in more recent versions. That added to the confusion; the local
copy of QEMU source I was reading didn't match the binary I was using. Doh.

I'm sure it does crash. I'll hack the guest to actually test this. More below.

No, bitmap was supposed to be initialized as:

if (likely(!has_mismatch))
bitmap = (u64 *)vcpu_mask;
else
bitmap = vp_bitmap;

The idea being that the !mismatch case sets vcpu_mask directly, and the mismatch
case sets vp_bitmap and then uses that to fill vcpu_mask.
