[PATCH 3.16 024/212] hv: allocate synic pages for all present CPUs

From: Ben Hutchings
Date: Thu Jun 01 2017 - 12:38:58 EST


3.16.44-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Vitaly Kuznetsov <vkuznets@xxxxxxxxxx>

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.
