If the vCPU id is set and the shared_info is mapped using HVA then we can
infer that KVM has the ability to use a default vcpu_info mapping. Hence
we can stop setting the address of the vcpu_info structure.
Again that means we're not *testing* it any more when the test is run
on newer kernels. Can we perhaps set it explicitly, after *half* the
tests are done? Maybe to a *different* address than the default which
is derived from the Xen vcpu_id? And check that the memcpy works right
when we do?
Ok. The VMM is currently responsible for that memcpy. Are you suggesting
we push that into KVM too?
