Subject: [PATCH 3.12 11/63] arm/arm64: kvm: Set vcpu->cpu to -1 on vcpu_put

From: Christoffer Dall <christoffer.dall@...aro.org>

3.12-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

===============

commit e9b152cb957cb194437f37e79f0f3c9d34fe53d6 upstream.

The arch-generic KVM code expects the cpu field of a vcpu to be -1 if
the vcpu is no longer assigned to a cpu.  This is used for the optimized
make_all_cpus_request path and will be used by the vgic code to check
that no vcpus are running.
