Subject: [PATCH 0/5] xen/pvh*: Support > 32 VCPUs at restore

This patch series fixes a bunch of issues in the xen_vcpu setup
logic.

Simplify xen_vcpu related code: code refactoring in advance of the
rest of the patch series.

Support > 32 VCPUs at restore: unify all vcpu restore logic in
xen_vcpu_restore() and support > 32 VCPUs for PVH*.

Remove vcpu info placement from restore (!SMP): some pv_ops are
marked RO after init so lets not redo xen_setup_vcpu_info_placement
at restore.

Handle xen_vcpu_setup() failure in hotplug: handle vcpu_info
registration failures by propagating them from the cpuhp-prepare
callback back up to the cpuhp logic.

Handle xen_vcpu_setup() failure at boot: pull CPUs (> MAX_VIRT_CPUS)
down if we fall back to xen_have_vcpu_info_placement = 0.

Tested with various combinations of PV/PVHv2/PVHVM save/restore
and cpu-hotadd-hotremove. Also tested by simulating failure in
VCPUOP_register_vcpu_info.

Please review.
