There are cases where a guest tries to switch spinlocks to bare metal behavior (e.g. by setting "xen_nopvspin" on XEN platform and "hv_nopvspin" on HYPER_V). That feature is missed on KVM, add a new parameter "nopvspin" to disable PV spinlocks for KVM guest. The new 'nopvspin' parameter will also replace Xen and Hyper-V specific parameters in future patches. Define variable nopvsin as global because it will be used in future patches as above.
