[PATCH v2 0/7] KVM: Turn the vcpu array into an xarray

[Marc Zyngier <maz@kernel.org>]

The kvm structure is pretty large. A large portion of it is the vcpu
array, which is 4kB on arm64 with 512 vcpu, double that on x86-64.  Of
course, hardly anyone runs VMs this big, so this is often a net waste
of memory and cache locality.

A possible approach is to turn the fixed-size array into an xarray,
which results in a net code deletion after a bit of cleanup.

* From v1:
  - Rebased on v5.16-rc1
  - Dropped the dubious locking on teardown
  - Converted kvm_for_each_vcpu() to xa_for_each_range(), together with
    an invasive change converting the index to an unsigned long

Marc Zyngier (7):
  KVM: Move wiping of the kvm->vcpus array to common code
  KVM: mips: Use kvm_get_vcpu() instead of open-coded access
  KVM: s390: Use kvm_get_vcpu() instead of open-coded access
  KVM: x86: Use kvm_get_vcpu() instead of open-coded access
  KVM: Convert the kvm->vcpus array to a xarray
  KVM: Use 'unsigned long' as kvm_for_each_vcpu()'s index
  KVM: Convert kvm_for_each_vcpu() to using xa_for_each_range()
