KVM: s390: pv: avoid stalls for kvm_s390_pv_init_vm
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
[ Upstream commit 1e2aa46 ]

When the system is heavily overcommitted, kvm_s390_pv_init_vm might
generate stall notifications.

Fix this by using uv_call_sched instead of just uv_call. This is ok because
we are not holding spinlocks.
