[PATCH RFC V3 2/3] kvm: Note down when cpu relax intercepted or pause loop exited

[Raghavendra K T <raghavendra.kt@linux.vnet.ibm.com>]

From: Raghavendra K T <raghavendra.kt@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

Noting pause loop exited or cpu relax intercepted vcpu helps in
filtering right candidate to yield. Wrong selection of vcpu;
i.e., a vcpu that just did a pl-exit or cpu relax intercepted may
contribute to performance degradation.
