KVM_HC_KICK_CPU hypercall added to wakeup halted vcpu in paravirtual spinlock
enabled guest.
KVM_FEATURE_PV_UNHALT enables guest to check whether pv spinlock can be enabled
in guest.
Thanks Alex for KVM_HC_FEATURES inputs and Vatsa for rewriting KVM_HC_KICK_CPU
This contains valuable documentation for features that are already

One comment on them below.
That sounds like a good idea. Sure, will do that.
