No, because they do receive service (they spend some time spinning
before being interrupted), so the respective vruntimes will increase, at
some point they'll pass B0 and it'll get scheduled.
Is that sufficient to ensure that B0 receives its fair share (1/3 cpu in this
case)?
Hmm perhaps yes, althought at cost of tons of context switches, which would be
nice to minimize on?
Don't care, as long as the guys calling yield_to() pay for that time its
their problem.
Also, the context switches are cheaper than spinning
entire time slices on spinlocks we're not going to get
(because the VCPU holding the lock is not running).
