From: "Gautham R. Shenoy" <ego@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> The code that handles the case when we receive a H_DOORBELL interrupt has a comment which says "Hypervisor doorbell - exit only if host IPI flag set". However, the current code does not actually check if the host IPI flag is set. This is due to a comparison instruction that got missed. As a result, the current code performs the exit to host only if some sibling thread or a sibling sub-core is exiting to the host. This implies that, an IPI sent to a sibling core in (subcores-per-core != 1) mode will be missed by the host unless the sibling core is on the exit path to the host. This patch adds the missing comparison operation which will ensure that when HOST_IPI flag is set, we unconditionally exit to the host.
