[PATCH 05/10] viridian: use softirq batching in hvcall_ipi()



From: Paul Durrant <pdurrant@xxxxxxxxxx>

vlapic_ipi() uses a softirq batching mechanism to improve the efficiency of
sending a IPIs to large number of processors. This patch modifies send_ipi()
(the worker function called by hvcall_ipi()) to also make use of the
mechanism when there multiple bits set the hypercall_vpmask. Hence a `nr`
field is added to the structure to track the number of set bits.
