Subject: [PATCH 2/4] Scheduler changes

available_idle_cpu_sched() invokes pcpu_is_idle() to detect whether
a pCPU where the preempted vCPU most recently run is idle or not, which
is used by the guest OS.

get_cpu_nr_running() gets the run queue of current cpu, which is used
by the host KVM to know whether a pCPU where the preempted vCPU mostly
recently run is idle or not.
