One may wonder why we're mixing up VP indices and VCPU ids (caped by
KVM_MAX_VCPUS) here as these don't have to match. The following commit
sheds some light:

commit 9170200ec0ebad70e5b9902bc93e2b1b11456a3b
Author: Vitaly Kuznetsov <vkuznets@redhat.com>
Date: Wed Aug 22 12:18:28 2018 +0200

KVM: x86: hyperv: enforce vp_index < KVM_MAX_VCPUS

Hyper-V TLFS (5.0b) states:

> Virtual processors are identified by using an index (VP index). The
> maximum number of virtual processors per partition supported by the
> current implementation of the hypervisor can be obtained through CPUID
> leaf 0x40000005. A virtual processor index must be less than the
> maximum number of virtual processors per partition.

Forbid userspace to set VP_INDEX above KVM_MAX_VCPUS. get_vcpu_by_vpidx()
can now be optimized to bail early when supplied vpidx is >= KVM_MAX_VCPUS.

Saves the day until KVM_MAX_VCPUS goes above 4096 (and when it does the
problem strikes back even worse as KVM_HV_MAX_SPARSE_VCPU_SET_BITS is
not caped at '64'). As we're good for now,

(I'd even suggest we add BUILD_BUG_ON(KVM_HV_MAX_SPARSE_VCPU_SET_BITS > 64))

Going forward, we can probably get rid of thes on-stack allocations
completely by either allocating these 512 bytes dynamically (lazily)
upon first usage or just adding a field to 'struct kvm_vcpu_hv' -- which
is being allcated dynamically nowadays so non-Windows guests won't suffer.
