Some versions of ld.so mmap the shared libraries right in over guest
memory, so compile lguest statically by default.
[ FC7 maps shared libraries very low, where the launcher maps guest's
physical memory. Quick fix is to link Launcher static, real fix is
for 2.6.24. ]
-static is a simple fix. I expect this problem will be more common than we
like, as different distro's make different "improvements" to ld.so

If a Guest makes hypercall which sets a GDT entry to not present, we
currently set any segment registers using that GDT entry to 0.
Unfortunately, this is not sufficient: there are other ways of
altering GDT entries which will cause a fault.
The correct solution to do what Linux does: let them set any GDT value
they want and handle the #GP when popping causes a fault. This has
the added benefit of making our Switcher slightly more robust in the
case of any other bugs which cause it to fault.
We kill the Guest if it causes a fault in the Switcher: it's the
Guest's responsibility to make sure it's not using segments when it
changes them.

lguest uses a host-supplied wallclock-based clocksource when the TSC
is not reliable. As this is already in nanoseconds, I naively used a
multiplier of 1 and a shift of 0.
But update_wall_time() in its infinite wisdom decides to adjust the
clock a little (where does it think it's getting a more accurate time
from?)
It will happily tweak the multiplier... to 0, then -1.
So the "fix" is to use a shift of 22 like everyone else, and a
multiplier of 1 << 22.

This reverts commit 0fc4969b86. It was
always meant to be temporary, but it's generating more useless noise
than anything else, and we probably should never have done it in the
generic kernel (only had the people involved test it on their own).

refine the granularity of negative nice level tasks: let them
reschedule more often to offset the effect of them consuming
their wait_runtime proportionately slower. (This makes nice-0
task scheduling smoother in the presence of negatively
reniced tasks.)

the key has to be rescaled to /weight even if it has a positive value.

round a tiny bit better in high-frequency rescheduling scenarios,
by rounding around zero instead of rounding down.
