Changes since v1 [Roman Kagan]:
- Drop vp_index_to_vcpu_idx mapping. get_vcpu_by_vpidx() should be fast
  (1:1 mapping) in all valid use-cases. We'll optimize it later if needed
  (or at least discuss this in a separate patchset).
- "enforce vp_index < KVM_MAX_VCPUS" patch added.
- Issues reported by kbuild are now gone with the PATCH2 from v2.

Using hypercall for sending IPIs is faster because this allows to specify
any number of vCPUs (even > 64 with sparse CPU set), the whole procedure
will take only one VMEXIT.

Same as PV TLB flush, this allows Windows guests having > 64 vCPUs to boot
on KVM when Hyper-V extensions are enabled.

Vitaly Kuznetsov (5):
  KVM: x86: hyperv: enforce vp_index < KVM_MAX_VCPUS
  KVM: x86: hyperv: optimize 'all cpus' case in kvm_hv_flush_tlb()
  KVM: x86: hyperv: use get_vcpu_by_vpidx() in kvm_hv_flush_tlb()
  x86/hyper-v: rename ipi_arg_{ex,non_ex} structures
  KVM: x86: hyperv: implement PV IPI send hypercalls
