[patch 1/3] KVM: x86: add per-vcpu option to set guest vcpu -RT priority

From: Marcelo Tosatti
Date: Thu Sep 21 2017 - 07:44:34 EST


In preparation to the patch which adds a hypercall for
the guest vcpu to change states between:

-> SCHED_FIFO.
-> SCHED_NORMAL.

Add controls to:

1) Allow control to which priority SCHED_FIFO state will be in
place (in the host).

2) Enable/disable ability to use the hypercall, on a per-vcpu
basis.
