* [PATCH v4 0/3] KVM: Yield to IPI target if necessary

The idea is from Xen, when sending a call-function IPI-many to vCPUs, 
yield if any of the IPI target vCPUs was preempted. 17% performance 
increasement of ebizzy benchmark can be observed in an over-subscribe 
environment. (w/ kvm-pv-tlb disabled, testing TLB flush call-function 
IPI-many since call-function is not easy to be trigged by userspace 
workload).

v3 -> v4: 
 * check map->phys_map[dest_id]
 * more cleaner kvm_sched_yield()

v2 -> v3:
 * add bounds-check on dest_id

v1 -> v2:
 * check map is not NULL
 * check map->phys_map[dest_id] is not NULL
 * make kvm_sched_yield static
 * change dest_id to unsinged long

When sending a call-function IPI-many to vCPUs, yield if any of
the IPI target vCPUs was preempted, we just select the first
preempted target vCPU which we found since the state of target
vCPUs can change underneath and to avoid race conditions.

From: Wanpeng Li <wanpengli@tencent.com>

The target vCPUs are in runnable state after vcpu_kick and suitable 
as a yield target. This patch implements the sched yield hypercall.

17% performance increasement of ebizzy benchmark can be observed in an 
over-subscribe environment. (w/ kvm-pv-tlb disabled, testing TLB flush 
call-function IPI-many since call-function is not easy to be trigged 
by userspace workload).

Expose PV_SCHED_YIELD feature bit to guest, the guest can check this
feature bit before using paravirtualized sched yield.
