Conghui Chen 53d4a7169b hv: remove kick_thread from scheduler module
kick_thread function is only used by kick_vcpu to kick vcpu out of
non-root mode, the implementation in it is sending IPI to target CPU if
target obj is running and target PCPU is not current one; while for
runnable obj, it will just make reschedule request. So the kick_thread
is not actually belong to scheduler module, we can drop it and just do
the cpu notification in kick_vcpu.

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.
