The change looks mechanical enough to be probably fine, but what's
the connection between the item currently being on schedule()'s stack
and there being multiple vCPU-s? Is this because it'll be established
just once, but used multiple times (by different parties)? In which
case, since the "slaves" will have to wait for the "master" to make
the scheduling decision, there'll need to be communication anyway
between all involved parties.
