 * @cmd == SCHEDOP_??? (scheduler operation).
 * @arg == Operation-specific extra argument(s), as described below.
 * ...  == Additional Operation-specific extra arguments, described below.

 * Versions of Xen prior to 3.0.2 provided only the following legacy version
 * of this hypercall, supporting only the commands yield, block and shutdown:

 * @cmd == SCHEDOP_??? (scheduler operation).
 * @arg == 0 (SCHEDOP_yield and SCHEDOP_block)
 *      == SHUTDOWN_* code (SCHEDOP_shutdown)
