Shuo A Liu 9a15ea82ee hv: pause all other vCPUs in same VM when do wbinvd emulation
Invalidate cache by scanning and flushing the whole guest memory is
inefficient which might cause long execution time for WBINVD emulation.
A long execution in hypervisor might cause a vCPU stuck phenomenon what
impact Windows Guest booting.

This patch introduce a workaround method that pausing all other vCPUs in
the same VM when do wbinvd emulation.

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.
