Complain.

I had to hunt around a bit to discover that this functionality has
something to do with "giving up the timeslice of a virtual cpu in favour of
a specific cpu".  And also that it is expected to be of some

So...  Could you please flesh out the description/rationale rather a lot
and cc linux-kernel on the patches?

Thanks.
