Provide a config option to enable the steal_governor driver. Since the feature targets paravirtualized environments and requires SMP, enforce those dependencies. The driver selects CONFIG_PREFERRED_CPU for the core scheduler mechanisms to work. It is recommended to build the driver as a module (m) instead of built-in (y) due to the following reasons: - Module parameters are read-only after initialization. Building as a module allows updating these parameters by simply reloading the module. Default module parameters cannot work in all configurations. - The driver can be completely disabled by unloading the module. - This feature works best when all VMs operate in a cooperative manner. Requiring an explicit module load ensures intentional deployment across all VMs by the system administrator.
