3.16.44-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------ From: Vitaly Kuznetsov <[email protected]> commit 3c7630d35009e6635e5b58d62de554fd5b6db5df upstream. Initializing hv_context.percpu_list in hv_synic_alloc() helps to prevent a crash in percpu_channel_enq() when not all CPUs were online during initialization and it naturally belongs there.
