Hmm. Is this correct for late arriving CPUs, where we don't know whether
a callback is required at the point we do the copy?

That sounds fiddly to resolve, but this _might_ all be moot because I'm
about to post a series that allows us to remove the hyp mapping of this
variable entirely. So leave this for now, but maybe stick a comment in
that it doesn't work for late cpus.
