[PATCH v9 0/9] Implement vcpu soft affinity for credit1 (toolstack side)

[Dario Faggioli <dario.faggioli@citrix.com>]

Hi!

And here it comes v9, which only includes the tools side fo the thing, as Jan
already applied the hypervisor part of the series during v8 (thanks!).

The only thing that changed from v8, is that I now, while deprecating the
cpumap field of libxl_build_info, I am still honouring it's content in libxl,
to maintain compatibility with old applications, as pointed out by Ian and Wei.

Patches in need of review and acks are the ones marked with '*' in the below
summary.

This is available in form of a git tree here:
 git://xenbits.xen.org/people/dariof/xen.git numa/per-vcpu-affinity-v9

Regards,
Dario
