Interface-wise: I'm wondering if at the Xen or libxl level we really
need to have a whole new set of hypercalls, at least to implement #1.
Would it make sense for certain schedulers to automatically switch to
"no accounting" mode when the hard_affinity of a vcpu is limited to one
vcpu, and no other vcpus are also limited to that one vcpu?
