[PATCH] icount: improve exec nocache usage


From: Pavel Dovgalyuk
Subject: [PATCH] icount: improve exec nocache usage
Date: Tue, 08 Dec 2020 12:10:58 +0300
User-agent: StGit/0.23

cpu-exec tries to execute TB without caching when current
icount budget is over. But sometimes refilled budget is big
enough to try executing cached blocks.
This patch checks that instruction budget is big enough
for next block execution instead of just running cpu_exec_nocache.
It halves the number of calls of cpu_exec_nocache function
during tested OS boot scenario.
