From: Justin Weaver <jtweaver@hawaii.edu>

as it was still missing.

Note that this patch "only" implements hard affinity,
i.e., the possibility of specifying on what pCPUs a
certain vCPU can run. Soft affinity (which express a
preference for vCPUs to run on certain pCPUs) is still
not supported by Credit2, even after this patch.
