758e1b2b622d7c177dc2d95e887a11aa069b7e68 cpus-common: simplify locking for start_exclusive/end_exclusive
It is not necessary to hold qemu_cpu_list_mutex throughout the
exclusive section, because no other exclusive section can run
while pending_cpus != 0.
exclusive_idle() is called in cpu_exec_start(), and that prevents
any CPUs created after start_exclusive() from entering cpu_exec()
during an exclusive section.
