    We could, but it taking advantage of the pinning functionality would require
    plumbing a command line option for every test, or alternatively adding partial
    command line parsing with a "hidden" global struct to kvm_selftest_init(), though
    handling error checking for a truly generic case would be a mess. Either way,
    extending pinning to other tests would require non-trivial effort, and can be
    done on top of this series.

    That said, it's also trival to extract the pinning helpers to common code, and I
    can't think of any reason not to do that straightaway.

    Vipin, any objection to squashing the below diff with patch 5?

    > e.g. adding it to the helper function that I'm trying to create

    If we go this route in the future, we'd need to add a worker trampoline as the
    pinning needs to happen in the worker task itself to guarantee that the pinning
    takes effect before the worker does anything useful. That should be very doable.

    I do like the idea of extending __vcpu_thread_create(), but we can do that once
    __vcpu_thread_create() lands to avoid further delaying this series.
