The 'cpu' option in domain config files will pin VCPU0 of a domain.
This is not as useful now that domains can have more than 1 vcpu. This
patch changes 'cpu' to 'cpus' and takes a list of physical cpus the
domains' vcpus can use and will pin the vcpus upon domain creation.
cpus = [1] # this starts all domain vcpus pinned to CPU1
The list is circular, so in a domain with the following config:
vcpus = 4
cpus = [0,3,7] # Use any of 0, 3, 7 for this domain.
would see vcpus 0-3 pinned to cpus 0,3,7,0 respectively.
Also, the pin operation is moved before the memory reservation as vcpu
to cpu mapping will be helpful for future NUMA work when trying to
allocate pages close to the physical cpus being used.
