I'm not against this second line of defense but kvm_hv_send_ipi() is
only called explicitly from kvm_hv_hypercall()'s switch so something is
really screwed up if we end up seeing something different from
HVCALL_SEND_IPI_EX/HVCALL_SEND_IPI here.

I'm now working on a bigger series for TLB flush improvements, will use
your suggestion there, thanks!
