Sean Christopherson d29433336a KVM: SVM: Drop superfluous "cache" of AVIC Physical ID entry pointer
Drop the vCPU's pointer to its AVIC Physical ID entry, and simply index
the table directly.  Caching a pointer address is completely unnecessary
for performance, and while the field technically caches the result of the
pointer calculation, it's all too easy to misinterpret the name and think
that the field somehow caches the _data_ in the table.

No functional change intended.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
