Series xen: add core scheduling support | expand

Commit Message

Jürgen Groß May 6, 2019, 6:56 a.m. UTC
In preparation of core scheduling let the percpu pointer
schedule_data.curr point to a strct sched_item instead of the related
vcpu. At the same time rename the per-vcpu scheduler specific structs
to per-item ones.
