Extends Linux guest running on KVM hypervisor to support pv-ticketlocks.

During smp_boot_cpus  paravirtualied KVM guest detects if the hypervisor has
required feature (KVM_FEATURE_PVLOCK_KICK) to support pv-ticketlocks. If so,
support for pv-ticketlocks is registered via pv_lock_ops.

Use KVM_HC_KICK_CPU hypercall to wakeup waiting/halted vcpu.

This patch is mixing host and guest code. Please split those up.



Agree. The host code should have gone to patch 2.
