Did you consider using a "fast" hypercall? Unless there's some reason I'm
not aware of, a "fast" hypercall would be perfect here as there are 16 bytes
of input and no output. Vitaly recently added hv_do_fast_hypercall16()
in the linux-next tree. See __send_ipi_mask() in hv_apic.c in linux-next
for an example of usage. With a fast hypercall, you don't need the code for
getting the per-cpu input arg or the code for local irq save/restore, so the
code that is left is a lot faster and simpler.
