Avi Kivity e107be36ef [PATCH] sched: arch preempt notifier mechanism ...

This adds a general mechanism whereby a task can request the scheduler to
notify it whenever it is preempted or scheduled back in.  This allows the
task to swap any special-purpose registers like the fpu or Intel's VT
registers.
