This patch removes config option of KVM_ARM_MAX_VCPUS, and like other ARCHs, just choose the maximum allowed value from hardware, and follows the reasons: 1) from distribution view, the option has to be defined as the max allowed value because it need to meet all kinds of virtulization applications and need to support most of SoCs; 2) using a bigger value doesn't introduce extra memory consumption, and the help text in Kconfig isn't accurate because kvm_vpu structure isn't allocated until request of creating VCPU is sent from QEMU; 3) the main effect is that the field of vcpus[] in 'struct kvm' becomes a bit bigger(sizeof(void *) per vcpu) and need more cache lines to hold the structure, but 'struct kvm' is one generic struct, and it has worked well on other ARCHs already in this way. Also, the world switch frequecy is often low, for example, it is ~2000 when running kernel building load in VM from APM xgene KVM host, so the effect is very small, and the difference can't be observed in my test at all.
