Hi all,

All of the points raised by Ionut are about governor lacking
certain logic for a specific arch. Considering what Shrikanth
mentions under "Future Work";

"""
Known Limitations & Future Work
===============================
...
- Arch specific hints and framework for it as been deferred to
  the future.
...
"""

I think all of these points can be addressed better if
Xen used said framework and implemented their own governor
module. That way we wouldn't see an overinflated single
steal_governor but instead nicely separated arch/platform
specific ones, that are tailored best for their needs.
The current implementation could be the fallback option
if platform does not implement their own and would also
serve as an example.

I really think we should follow the example of cpuidle
drivers and how their framework brings together so many
platforms under a single roof.

Thanks!
