I think from KVM's point of view, the vcpu_id is still zero. As is the
vcpu_idx. What you're setting is the *Xen* vcpu_id.

I like that it's *different* to the vcpu_id; we should definitely be
testing that case. I don't quite know why the code was using
vcpu_info[1] in the shinfo before when we were explicitly setting the
address from userspace; I suppose it didn't matter.

As well as being a bit clearer in the commit comment as noted above,
let's call this XEN_VCPU_ID ? 

With that cleaned up,
