PV-state is a per-CPU struct, which, for the time being,
holds boolean `preempted' vCPU state. During the startup,
given that host supports PV-state, each guest vCPU sends
a pointer to its per-CPU variable to the host as a payload
with the SMCC HV call, so that host can update vCPU state
when it puts or loads vCPU.
This has impact on the guest's scheduler - it does check
the state of the vCPU it wants to run a task on:
[..]
wake_up_process()
try_to_wake_up()
select_task_rq_fair()
available_idle_cpu()
vcpu_is_preempted()
Some sched benchmarks data is available on the github page [0].
