It's not just INVLPGB support. Take a look at hyperv_flush_tlb_multi(),
for instance. It can eventually land back in native_flush_tlb_multi(),
but would also "fail" the pv_ops check in all cases.

It's not that Hyper-V performance is super important, it just that the
semantics of the chosen approach here are rather complicated.

I'd really like to see what an mm->context approach looks like before we
go forward with what is being proposed here.

Is there some kind of hurry to get this done immediately?
