There are two issues in avic_kick_target_vcpus_fast

1. It is legal to issue an IPI request with APIC_DEST_NOSHORT
and a physical destination of 0xFF (or 0xFFFFFFFF in case of x2apic),
which must be treated as a broadcast destination.

Fix this by explicitly checking for it.
Also don’t use ‘index’ in this case as it gives no new information.

2. It is legal to issue a logical IPI request to more than one target.
Index field only provides index in physical id table of first
such target and therefore can't be used before we are sure
that only a single target was addressed.

Instead, parse the ICRL/ICRH, double check that a unicast interrupt
was requested, and use that info to figure out the physical id
of the target vCPU.
At that point there is no need to use the index field as well.


In addition to fixing the above issues, also skip the call to
kvm_apic_match_dest.

It is possible to do this now, because now as long as AVIC is not
inhibited, it is guaranteed that none of the vCPUs changed their
apic id from its default value.


This fixes boot of windows guest with AVIC enabled because it uses
IPI with 0xFF destination and no destination shorthand.

Is it possible to use kvm_intr_is_single_vcpu_fast, or am I missing something?

Series queued, thanks.
