Most of this looks good to me.
The one thing I find hard to understand is the kexec state machine.
Based on my naive reading, this should work fine for "normal" kexecs,
since it should disable migration on shutdown (with one call per
vCPU), and reenable on reboot (with a single call). That said, I don't
really understand how this interacts with the
hibernate-old-kernel/preserve-context mode of kexec (which allows
jumping back into the original kernel). That may "just work" if
reloading memory would also trigger all of the necessary c-bit
hypercalls. If there are concerns that this would not "just work", the
kernel could choose not to reenable migration on return to the
original kernel until someone implements support for this.
Boris, do you have any thoughts on the kexec aspect of this change?
