I don't think we care about an atomic read here.  All data is in buffer
by this point, if it did not fork before that then we are ok, even
if it forks during the read.

We probably do need a memory barrier to make sure all writes complete
before the read of vmgenid, I'm not sure which kind - I think hypervisor
can be trusted to do a full CPU barrier on fork so probably just a
compiler barrier.
