Subject: [PATCH v2 1/4] KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: exit halt polling on need_resched() as well

From: Wanpeng Li <wanpengli@...cent.com>

Inspired by commit 262de4102c7bb8 (kvm: exit halt polling on need_resched()
as well), CFS_BANDWIDTH throttling will use resched_task() when there is just
one task to get the task to block. It was likely allowing VMs to overrun their
quota when halt polling. Due to PPC implements an arch specific halt polling
logic, we should add the need_resched() checking there as well.
