OK, I'll simplify it.

I don't know.

As far as I can tell, the hypercall was introduced in v5 of the TLFS and
already contained the VTL selection bits. Unfortunately the spec doesn't
explicitly state what to do when hv_input_vtl is received from a non-VSM
enabled guest, so I tried to keep the current behaviour for every case
(send_ipi/send_ipi_ex/fast/!fat).

OK, I agree it's nicer.

Yes. I'll fix it.
