use that saved value when handling the reply. Xenstored will leave the
message type intact, _except_ when returning an error, in which case it will
change the type to XS_ERROR. This meant that we failed to remove a
transaction from our internal list if xenstored returned EAGAIN, as we did not
realise that the message was XS_TRANSACTION_END. This manifested itself as
the intended behaviour until the connection was closed, at which point all of
those failed transactions would erroneously be aborted.

checksum calculation gets done twice, which is not twice as good as
once.
With this patch, TCP/UDP checksum errors from dom0 are fixed, and
domUs can use TCP/UDP without turning off TX checksum offload. Normal
non-VLAN bridged configs still work fine, tested with xm-test.

xen/ia64 with the P2M/VP model pseudo physical address(gpaddr) is
fully virtualized so it defines
xen_features(XENFEAT_auto_translated_physmap) = 1. In this case
page_to_phys(page) should return pseudo physical address like
pfn_to_mfn() and its families. However dma is not virtualized, it
can't be used for pci-dma-xen.c, swiotlb.c.

paravirtualized and fully virtualized. This approach uses the new
sched_op to handle other domains than the current domain. The new
code, SCHEDOP_remote_shutdown, is very much like SCHEDOP_shutdown, but
is called with the id of the domain which is to be shut down. This
allows fully virtualized shutdown and para-virtualized shutdown to be
identical from that point forward.
A paravirtualized domain uses sched_op to shut down and set the reason
code. This will send a VIRQ_DOM_EXC, which can be handled in dom0 by
control software. In some ways, this resembles SIGCHILD/waitpid, and
is a reasonable model.
The fully virtualized case has qemu invoke xm directly. This is a
different path than paravirtualized. It also removes decision and
policy making choices from the rest of the control software and places
it within qemu. When any dom0 logic eventually gets a VIRQ_DOM_EXC,
the information about the domain is gone having been destroyed by xm.
A libxenctrl wrapper, xc_shutdown_domain has been added and qemu now
calls it.
As a freebie, #if 0 some very verbose logging code in qemu. Totally
unrelated, but as long as I was there...

Largely this involves making the logic symmetrical: for example,
not only should netfront be able to tell netback that a packet has
an empty protocol checksum field, but the reverse must also be true.
Another change is that the drivers only advertise IP checksum
offload functionality. There is currently no information
propagated across the device channel about the offset of the
protocol-specific checksum field. Therefore it is not safe to
defer checksum calculation for protocols the remote end may not
understand -- it will end up dropping having to drop the packet.
Yet another change is to allow netback to disable tx checksum
offload, just as we already could for netfront. Currently there is
no support for disabling rx checksum offload -- that would seem
to require some way of propagating the checksum-offload advertisement
(or lack of it) across the device channel, as it really ought to be
the transmitter that acts on it.
Thanks to Ian Jackson for pointing out some of the problems with
our checksum-offload handling. Several of the changes here are
due to his comments.
