This patch removes the powerpc "generic" updates of vcpu->cpu in load and put, and moves them to the various backends. The reason is that "HV" KVM does its own sauce with that field and the generic updates might corrupt it. The field contains the CPU# of the -first- HW CPU of the core always for all the VCPU threads of a core (the one that's online from a host Linux perspective). However, the preempt notifiers are going to be called on the threads VCPUs when they are running (due to them sleeping on our private waitqueue) causing unload to be called, potentially clobbering the value.
