More questions: what happens to vSGIs that were mapped to the VPEs?
Can they safely be restarted? The spec is not saying much on the 
subject.

Once the unmap has taken place, it won't be possible to read their state
via GICR_VSGIRPEND, and only the memory state can be used. This probably
needs to be tracked as well.

Thanks,
