Title:
  SRU: Bump KVM_MAX_VCPUS to 64

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  SRU Justification:
  There are lots of server boxes with more than 16 CPUs. Current KVM implementation can give up to 16 vCPUs to guest system. It would be nice if we could rise this limit.

  Upstream commit:
  http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commitdiff;h=0680fe52753381cb7154beeb01ef3e48f2cdeec6

  PS. Also backporting of fix should require original SRCU patchset from
  2.6.34 to be ported as well.
