Great idea. Let me think about it..

Makes sense, I'll add an ASSERT to be safe.

Sure, I'll add a comment.

If you look at the way the array is arranged, the element with
VM_VCPUID_MAP_INVAL acts as a sentinel for us and all the proper
elements would lie before this. So, I don't think we'd have a sparse
array here.
