[Xen-devel] [PATCH] Schedule shutdown fix

[Ben Guthro <bguthro@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

domain_shutdown() needs to call raise_softirq(SCHEDULE_SOFTIRQ).
This forces the current vcpu to be rescheduled and paused.
Without this, during live migrate, if another vcpu has defer_shutdown==1
then the current vcpu can return from domain_shutdown(),
do a vmenter, and continue running guest code, "resume" code that
should only be running on the receiving node!
