[PATCH 5/5] KVM: Convert the kvm->vcpus array to a xarray

[Marc Zyngier]

At least on arm64 and x86, the vcpus array is pretty huge (512 entries),
and is mostly empty in most cases (running 512 vcpu VMs is not that
common). This mean that we end-up with a 4kB block of unused memory
in the middle of the kvm structure.

Instead of wasting away this memory, let's use an xarray instead,
which gives us almost the same flexibility as a normal array, but
with a reduced memory usage with smaller VMs.
