x86/hyperv: remove on-stack cpumask from hv_send_ipi_mask_allbutself
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.
