[PATCH v3 0/2] x86/kvm: Reduce vcpu_is_preempted() overhead
v2->v3: - Provide an optimized __raw_callee_save___kvm_vcpu_is_preempted() in assembly as suggested by PeterZ. - Add a new patch to change vcpu_is_preempted() argument type to long to ease the writing of the assembly code. v1->v2: - Rerun the fio test on a different system on both bare-metal and a KVM guest. Both sockets were utilized in this test. - The commit log was
