Subject: hv: allocate synic pages for all present CPUs

From: Vitaly Kuznetsov <vkuznets@redhat.com>

commit 421b8f20d3c381b215f988b42428f56fc3b82405 upstream.

It may happen that not all CPUs are online when we do hv_synic_alloc() and
in case more CPUs come online later we may try accessing these allocated
structures.
