From: Wanpeng Li <wanpengli@xxxxxxxxxxx> IPI shorthand is supported now by linux apic/x2apic driver, switch to IPI shorthand for all excluding self and all including self destination shorthand in kvm guest, to avoid splitting the target mask into several PV IPI hypercalls. This patch removes the kvm_send_ipi_all() and kvm_send_ipi_allbutself() since the callers in APIC codes have already taken care of apic_use_ipi_shorthand and fallback to ->send_IPI_mask and ->send_IPI_mask_allbutself if it is false.
