Use the existing TLB flushing logic to IPI the previous CPU and run the necessary barriers before running a guest vCPU on a new physical CPU, to do the necessary radix GTSE barriers for handling the case of an interrupted guest tlbie sequence. This requires the vCPU TLB flush sequence that is currently just done on one thread, to be expanded to ensure the other threads execute a ptesync, because causing them to exit the guest will no longer cause a ptesync by itself. This results in more IPIs than the TLB flush logic requires, but it's a significant win for common case scheduling when the vCPU remains on the same physical CPU. This saves about 520 cycles (nearly 10%) on a guest entry+exit micro benchmark on a POWER9.
