Hardware would directly write x2APIC ICR register instead of software emulation in some circumstances, e.g when Intel IPI virtualization is enabled. This behavior requires normal reserved bits checking to ensure them input as zero, otherwise it will cause #GP. So we need mask out those reserved bits from the data written to vICR register. Remove Delivery Status bit emulation in test case as this flag is invalid and not needed in x2APIC mode. KVM may ignore clearing it during interrupt dispatch which will lead to fake test failure. Opportunistically correct vector number for test sending IPI to non-existent vCPUs.

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.
