Subject: [PATCH 1/3] KVM: X86: Add "nopvspin" parameter to disable PV spinlocks
There are cases where a guest tries to switch spinlocks to bare metal
behavior (e.g. by setting "xen_nopvspin" on XEN platform and
"hv_nopvspin" on HYPER_V).
That feature is missed on KVM, add a new parameter "nopvspin" to disable
PV spinlocks for KVM guest.
This new parameter is also intended to replace "xen_nopvspin" and
"hv_nopvspin" in the future.
The global variable pvspin isn't defined as __initdata as it's used at
runtime by XEN guest.
Refactor the print stuff with pr_* which is preferred.
