[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 5/5] cpu: throttle: fix throttle time slice |

IIUC the throttle idea is that: we split a CPU_THROTTLE_TIMESLICE_NS
time slice into two parts - one for vcpu, one for throttle thread (which
will suspend the thread by a sleep). However current algorithm on
calculating the working piece and sleeping piece is strange.
Assume a 99% throttle, what we want is to merely stop vcpu from running,
but the old logic will just first let the vcpu run for a very long
time (which is "CPU_THROTTLE_TIMESLICE_NS / (1-pct)" = 1 second) before
doing anything else.
Fixing it up to the simplest but imho accurate logic.
