[ Upstream commit a21d1becaa3f17a97b933ffa677b526afc514ec5 ] Introduce a static branch that would be set during boot if the OS happens to be a KVM guest. Subsequent checks to see if we are on KVM will rely on this static branch. This static branch would be used in vcpu_is_preempted() in a subsequent patch.

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.
