[Xen-devel] [PATCH v2 4/5] xen: sched_null: support for hard affinity



As a (rudimental) way of directing and affecting the
placement logic implemented by the scheduler, support
vCPU hard affinity.

Basically, a vCPU will now be assigned only to a pCPU
that is part of its own hard affinity. If such pCPU(s)
is (are) busy, the vCPU will wait, like it happens
when there are no free pCPUs.

Changes from v1:
- coding style fixes (removed some hard tabs);
- better signature for check_nvc_affinity() (also renamed in
  vcpu_check_affinity());
- fixed bug in null_vcpu_remove() using uninitialized cpumask.
