Nit: Originally, I wasn't sure what 'pt' stands for.
Also, the 'pt_vcpu' made me think this would be a pointer to a vCPU.
Perhaps renaming this to 'vcpu_pthread' might be more clear ?

Nit: You might want to pass a pthread_t rather than migrate_data
unless the function uses some more fields of the data in the
following patches.

Considering that get_pcpu() chooses the target CPU from CPUs returned
from sched_getaffinity(), I would think the test should use the number of
the bits set in the returned cpu_set_t from sched_getaffinity() here
instead of get_nprocs(), as those numbers could be different (e.g.  if the
test runs with taskset with a subset of the CPUs on the system).

Why do you want to spawn another thread to run vcpus_migrate_func(),
rather than calling that from the current thread ?
