KVM: x86: lapic: Clean up find_highest_vector() and count_vectors()
find_highest_vector() and count_vectors():
- Instead of using magic values, define and use proper macros.
find_highest_vector():
- Remove likely() which is there only for historical reasons and not
doing correct branch predictions anymore. Using such heuristics
to optimize this function is not worth it now. Let CPUs predict
things instead.
- Stop checking word[0] separately. This was only needed for doing
likely() optimization.
- Use for loop, not while, to iterate over the register array to make
the code clearer.
Note that we actually confirmed that the likely() did wrong predictions
by inserting debug code.
