Subject: [PATCH v3 0/4] Allow AVIC's IPI virtualization to be optional

Hi!

This patch allows AVIC's ICR emulation to be optional and thus allows
to workaround AVIC's errata #1235 by disabling this portion of the feature.

This is v3 of my patch series 'AVIC bugfixes and workarounds' including
review feedback.

Best regards,
    Maxim Levitsky

  KVM: Add per vCPU flag specifying that a vCPU is loaded
  x86: KVM: AVIC: stop using 'is_running' bit in avic_vcpu_put()
  x86: KVM: don't read physical ID table entry in avic_pi_update_irte()
  x86: KVM: SVM: allow optionally to disable AVIC's IPI virtualization
