x86/hyperv: Clear vCPU banks between calls to avoid flushing unneeded vCPUs
hv_flush_pcpu_ex structures are not cleared between calls for performance reasons (they're variable size up to PAGE_SIZE each) but we must clear hv_vp_set.bank_contents part of it to avoid flushing unneeded vCPUs. The rest of the structure is formed correctly. To do the clearing in an efficient way stash the maximum possible vCPU number (this may differ from Linux CPU id).
