[Xen-devel] [PATCH RFC v3 2/6] KVM guest: register kvm_idle_poll for pv_idle_ops



From: Quan Xu <quan.xu0@xxxxxxxxx>

Although smart idle poll has nothing to do with paravirt, it can
not bring any benifit to native. So we only enable it when Linux
runs as a KVM guest( also it can extend to other hypervisor like
Xen, HyperV and VMware).

Introduce per-CPU variable poll_duration_ns to control the max
poll time.
