This is not a helpful description.  I can work out it allows me to
choose the credit2 runqueue simply given the parameters name.

This description should explain what `core` and `socket` mean, and what
behavioural different it has for the scheduler.

Xen coding style is either

/* $TEXT */

or

/*
 * $TEXT
 */

I suggest the former.

You can drop _OPT out of the name.  It serves only to make the constant
longer.

Also, this should probably be an enum as the exact numbers themselves
are not interesting.

This conditional is bogus.  If cpu0 is offlined and re-onlined, it must
use cpu_to_core()

This entire hunk should probably be

rqi = (opt_credit2_runqueue == CREDIT2_OPT_RUNQUEUE_SOCKET) ?
cpu_to_socket(cpu) : cpu_to_core(cpu);

(with suitable alignment)
