Increase KVM_MAX_VCPUS to 1024, so we can test larger VMs.
I'm not changing KVM_SOFT_MAX_VCPUS yet because I'm afraid it
might involve complicated questions around the meaning of
"supported" and "recommended" in the upstream tree.
KVM_SOFT_MAX_VCPUS will be changed in a separate patch.
For reference, visible effects of this change are:
- KVM_CAP_MAX_VCPUS will now return 1024 (of course)
- Default value for CPUID[HYPERV_CPUID_IMPLEMENT_LIMITS (00x40000005)].EAX
will now be 1024
- KVM_MAX_VCPU_ID will change from 1151 to 4096
- Size of struct kvm will increase from 19328 to 22272 bytes
(in x86_64)
- Size of struct kvm_ioapic will increase from 1780 to 5084 bytes
(in x86_64)
- Bitmap stack variables that will grow:
- At kvm_hv_flush_tlb() kvm_hv_send_ipi(),
vp_bitmap[] and vcpu_bitmap[] will now be 128 bytes long
- vcpu_bitmap at bioapic_write_indirect() will be 128 bytes long
once patch "KVM: x86: Fix stack-out-of-bounds memory access
from ioapic_write_indirect()" is applied

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.
