    Subject[PATCH 2/3] kvm hypervisor : Add hypercalls to support pv-ticketlock
    Add two hypercalls to KVM hypervisor to support pv-ticketlocks.

    KVM_HC_WAIT_FOR_KICK blocks the calling vcpu until another vcpu kicks it or it
    is woken up because of an event like interrupt.

    KVM_HC_KICK_CPU allows the calling vcpu to kick another vcpu.

    The presence of these hypercalls is indicated to guest via
    KVM_FEATURE_WAIT_FOR_KICK/KVM_CAP_WAIT_FOR_KICK. Qemu needs a corresponding
    patch to pass up the presence of this feature to guest via cpuid. Patch to qemu
    will be sent separately.
