Here is where we are resetting the processor. After clearing
CPU_INTERRUPT_INIT, no matter what else we do (such as resetting the
APIC and CPU), we need to set the mp_state to KVM_MP_STATE_INIT_RECEIVED.
Or if we go with your simpler hypervisor patch, we need to go to either
KVM_MP_STATE_INIT_RECEIVED for APs (wait for SIPI) or
KVM_MP_STATE_SIPI_RECEIVED for the BSP (restart running from the reset
vector).

Yes, the effect is the same for an INIT interrupt and the triggering of
INIT#.
