[PATCH] paravirt: Allow selected bug checks to be

Browse Source 
Allow selected bug checks to be skipped by paravirt kernels.  The two most
important are the F00F workaround (which is either done by the hypervisor,
or not required), and the 'hlt' instruction check, which can break under
some hypervisors.
