Two optimizations come to mind: First is to use for_each_set_bit instead
of kvm_for_each_vcpu to improve the sparse case.

And the second is to pass vcpu_bitmap = NULL instead of building the
bitmap with all VCPUs.  Doesn't looks too good in the end, though:

#define kvm_for_each_vcpu_bitmap(idx, vcpup, kvm, bitmap, len) \
	for (idx = (bitmap ? find_first_bit(bitmap, len) : 0); \
	     idx < len && (vcpup = kvm_get_vcpu(kvm, idx)) != NULL; \
	     bitmap ? find_next_bit(bitmap, len, idx + 1) : idx++)
