Shuo A Liu ae9aa8c061 hv: decouple IO completion polling from idle thread
IO completion polling will access vcpu and vm structs. If doing it in
idle thread, there might be some race issues between vm destroying and
idle thread. They are running on different cores.
Got suggestion from Fengwei, decouple the polling action from idle
thread and just do it in vcpu thread, then we can guarantee idle thread
in really idle status.

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.
