I wonder if you set vcpu->task in sched_out and then NULL it in sched_in
if you'd get what you want you could simplify the checks. Basically
that would be only the preempted runnable vcpus.

Just trying to think of ways to be sure this doesn't become just
yield() (although I thnk PF_VCPU is enough to catch that).
