Jan Beulich 3c958dbcba x86/Xen: streamline (and fix) PV CPU enumeration
[ Upstream commit e25a8d9599 ]

This started out with me noticing that "dom0_max_vcpus=<N>" with <N>
larger than the number of physical CPUs reported through ACPI tables
would not bring up the "excess" vCPU-s. Addressing this is the primary
purpose of the change; CPU maps handling is being tidied only as far as
is necessary for the change here (with the effect of also avoiding the
setting up of too much per-CPU infrastructure, i.e. for CPUs which can
never come online).

Noticing that xen_fill_possible_map() is called way too early, whereas
xen_filter_cpu_maps() is called too late (after per-CPU areas were
already set up), and further observing that each of the functions serves
only one of Dom0 or DomU, it looked like it was better to simplify this.
Use the .get_smp_config hook instead, uniformly for Dom0 and DomU.
xen_fill_possible_map() can be dropped altogether, while
xen_filter_cpu_maps() is re-purposed but not otherwise changed.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
