This is racy.  You are basically doing the same check that 
rcuwait_wake_up does, but without the memory barrier before.

Also here:

it's better to do

	if (vcpu == ... && !WARN_ON_ONCE(vcpu->mode == IN_GUEST_MODE))
		goto out;

so that if the bug happens you do get a smp_send_reschedule() and fail 
safely.
