again, depends on the setup, for example:
- disabling the virtual load/cpu stuff will give
you the overall view, which might work for
any 'detection' mechanism
- using the hard cpu idle scheduler with only
idle time assigned to the guest will basically
suspend the guest when 'real' work is done
- lowering the prio_bias for that guest might
give other guests the necessary priority boost
