init_vp_index() uses the (per-node) hv_numa_map[] masks to record the
CPUs allocated for channel interrupts at a given time, and distribute
the performance-critical channels across the available CPUs: in part.,
the mask of "candidate" target CPUs in a given NUMA node, for a newly
offered channel, is determined by XOR-ing the node's CPU mask and the
node's hv_numa_map.  This operation/mechanism assumes that no offline
CPUs is set in the hv_numa_map mask, an assumption that does not hold
since such mask is currently not updated when a channel is removed or
assigned to a different CPU.

To address the issues described above, this adds hooks in the channel
removal path (hv_process_channel_removal()) and in target_cpu_store()
in order to clear, resp. to update, the hv_numa_map[] masks as needed.
This also adds a (missed) update of the masks in init_vp_index() (cf.,
e.g., the memory-allocation failure path in this function).

Like in the case of i...
