Subject: KVM: VMX: add vcpu_clear()
From: Avi Kivity <avi@xxxxxxxxxxxx>
Like the inline code it replaces, this function decaches the vmcs from the cpu
it last executed on. in addition:
- vcpu_clear() works if the last cpu is also the cpu we're running on
- it is faster on larger smps by virtue of using smp_call_function_single()
Includes fix from Ingo Molnar.
