v1->v2:
  * Dropped patch to skip writing the MP Tables if apicid >= 255

v1: https://lore.kernel.org/xen-devel/20250128163342.1491-1-alejandro.vallejo@cloud.com/
source series: https://lore.kernel.org/xen-devel/20241021154600.11745-5-alejandro.vallejo@cloud.com/

The hypervisor, hvmloader and the toolstack currently engage in a shared
assumption that for every vCPU apicid == 2 * vcpuid. This series removes such
assumption from hvmloader, by making it read the APIC ID of each vCPU and
storing it for later use.

Alejandro Vallejo (2):
  tools/hvmloader: Retrieve APIC IDs from the APs themselves
  tools/hvmloader: Replace LAPIC_ID() with cpu_to_apicid[]
