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.
