Zide Chen 0a956c34c7 hv: add a new field cpu_affinity in struct acrn_vm
For post-launched VMs, the configured CPU affinity could be different
from the actual running CPU affinity. This new field acrn_vm->cpu_affinity
recognizes this difference so that it's possible that CREATE_VM
hypercall won't overwrite the configured CPU afifnity.

Change name cpu_affinity_bitmap in acrn_vm_config to cpu_affinity.
This is read-only in run time, never overwritten by acrn-dm.

Remove vm_config->vcpu_num, which means the number of vCPUs of the
configured CPU affinity. This is not to be confused with the actual
running vCPU number: vm->hw.created_vcpus.

Changed get_vm_bsp_pcpu_id() to get_configured_bsp_pcpu_id() for less
confusion.

ACRN Hypervisor
###############

The open source `Project ACRN`_ defines a device hypervisor reference stack and
an architecture for running multiple software subsystems, managed securely, on
a consolidated system by means of a virtual machine manager. It also defines a
reference framework implementation for virtual device emulation, called the
"ACRN Device Model".

The ACRN Hypervisor is a Type 1 reference hypervisor stack, running directly on
the bare-metal hardware, and is suitable for a variety of IoT and embedded
device solutions. The ACRN hypervisor addresses the gap that currently exists
between datacenter hypervisors, and hard partitioning hypervisors. The ACRN
hypervisor architecture partitions the system into different functional
domains, with carefully selected guest OS sharing optimizations for IoT and
embedded devices.

You can find out more about Project ACRN on the `Project ACRN documentation`_
website.
