[PATCH 0/3] KVM: x86: Fix off-by-one in max_vcpu_ids bounds checks

[Dmytro Maluka]

max_vcpu_ids and KVM_CAP_MAX_VCPU_ID are exclusive, i.e. the maximum
allowed vcpu_id value is max_vcpu_ids minus one, not max_vcpu_ids.

Fix the sanity checks for KVM_SET_BOOT_CPU_ID and KVM_CAP_MAX_VCPU_ID
and the selftests for them (added in series [1]) to fail when
bsp_vcpu_id is incorrectly set to max_vcpu_ids, not to a value below
max_vcpu_ids.

Also clarify that in the documentation of KVM_CAP_MAX_VCPU_ID, in an
attempt to make this a bit less confusing.
