It is not a good practice to allocate a cpumask on stack, given it may
consume up to 1 kilobytes of stack space if the kernel is configured to
have 8192 cpus.
The internal helper functions __send_ipi_mask{,_ex} need to loop over
the provided mask anyway, so it is not too difficult to skip `self'
there. We can thus do away with the on-stack cpumask in
hv_send_ipi_mask_allbutself.
Adjust call sites of __send_ipi_mask as needed.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
