The problem appears to be that &#39;vcpu_bitmap&#39; is allocated as a single long<br />
on stack and it should really be KVM_MAX_VCPUS long. We also seem to clear<br />
the lower 16 bits of it with bitmap_zero() for no particular reason (my<br />
guess would be that &#39;bitmap&#39; and &#39;vcpu_bitmap&#39; variables in<br />
kvm_bitmap_or_dest_vcpus() caused the confusion: while the later is indeed<br />
16-bit long, the later should accommodate all possible vCPUs).
