KVM: arm64: vgic-v3: Optimize affinity-based SGI injection
Our affinity-based SGI injection code is a bit daft. We iterate over all the CPUs trying to match the set of affinities that the guest is trying to reach, leading to some very bad behaviours if the selected targets are at a high vcpu index. Instead, we can now use the fact that we have an optimised MPIDR to vcpu mapping, and only look at the relevant values. This results in a much faster injection for large VMs, and in a near constant time, irrespective of the position in the vcpu index space. As a bonus, this is mostly deleting a lot of hard-to-read code. Nobody will complain about that.
