Subject: [PATCHv6 2/8] kvm: optimize ISR lookups
We perform ISR lookups twice: during interrupt
injection and on EOI. Typical workloads only have
a single bit set there. So we can avoid ISR scans by
1. counting bits as we set/clear them in ISR
2. on set, caching the injected vector number
3. on clear, invalidating the cache
The real purpose of this is enabling PV EOI
which needs to quickly validate the vector.
But non PV guests also benefit: with this patch,
and without interrupt nesting, apic_find_highest_isr
will always return immediately without scanning ISR.
Signed-off-by: Michael S. Tsirkin <mst@...hat.com>

This revision is slightly reworked from the last version
I sent: I don't invalidate the cache when there is more
than one bit set in ISR. This makes the code simpler,
makes cache valid in more cases and avoids a branch on data path.
Otherwise this is basically the same as v2: this revision does not
yet address Thomas's idea of reworking the APIC page handling.
