KVM: x86/xen: handle PV spinlocks slowpath
Add support for SCHEDOP_poll hypercall. This implementation is optimized for polling for a single channel, which is what Linux does. Polling for multiple channels is not especially efficient (and has not been tested). PV spinlocks slow path uses this hypercall, and explicitly crash if it's not supported.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
