[Xen-devel] "monitor"-ed address and IPI reduction



What is the point of specifying "current" as the address to monitor? The
memory location of interest really is irq_stat[cpu].__softirq_pending,
and if that was used it would then also be possible to actually avoid
sending IPIs when monitor/mwait are in use, as is being done on Linux.
