The cpumask_empty check is done before disabling irq. Is it possible
the mask is modified by an interrupt?

If there is a reliable way to trigger this bug, we may be able to test
the following patch.

diff --git a/arch/x86/hyperv/mmu.c b/arch/x86/hyperv/mmu.c

This thread died out 3 months ago without any patches being taken.
I recently hit the problem again at random, though not in a
reproducible way.

I'd like to take Wei Liu's latest proposal to check for an empty
cpumask *after* interrupts are disabled. I think this will almost
certainly solve the problem, and in a cleaner way than Sasha's
proposal. I'd also suggest adding a comment in the code to note
the importance of the ordering.

I found that this syzbot reproducer:
https://syzkaller.appspot.com//bug?id=47befb59c610a69f024db20b927dea80c88fc045
is pretty good at reproducing the issue too:
