KVM: x86: deliver KVM IOAPIC scan request to target vCPUs
In IOAPIC fixed delivery mode instead of flushing the scan requests to all vCPUs, we should only send the requests to vCPUs specified within the destination field. This patch introduces kvm_get_dest_vcpus_mask() API which retrieves an array of target vCPUs by using kvm_apic_map_get_dest_lapic() and then based on the vcpus_idx, it sets the bit in a bitmap. However, if the above fails kvm_get_dest_vcpus_mask() finds the target vCPUs by traversing all available vCPUs. Followed by setting the bits in the bitmap. If we had different vCPUs in the previous request for the same redirection table entry then bits corresponding to these vCPUs are also set. This to done to keep ioapic_handled_vectors synchronized. This bitmap is then eventually passed on to kvm_make_vcpus_request_mask() to generate a masked request only for the target vCPUs. This would enable us to reduce the latency overhead on isolated vCPUs caused by the IPI to process due to KVM_REQ_IOAPIC_SCAN.
