1. Balloon driver does not need to set M2P entry.
This is done by the populate_physmap hypercall.
2. Xen now translates foreign mappings from GMFN->MFN.
Tools are simplified because of this.

the length of the decompressed data because images have been observed which have
trailing junk.

The guest OS should be capable of parsing an image file in
whatever format was produced by that OS's tools. Furthermore,
we have seen initrd images with trailing garbage. This causes
us to calculate the wrong size for the uncompressed data and hence
fail to build the guest.

1. platform_op -- used by dom0 kernel to perform actions on the
hardware platform (e.g., MTRR access, microcode update, platform
quirks, ...)
2. domctl -- used by management tools to control a specified domain
3. sysctl -- used by management tools for system-wide actions
Benefits include more sensible factoring of actions to
hypercalls. Also allows tool compatibility to be tracked separately
from the dom0 kernel. The assumption is that it will be easier to
replace libxenctrl, libxenguest and Xen as a matched set if the
dom0 kernel does not need to be replaced too (e.g., because that
would require vendor revalidation).
From here on we hope to maintain dom0 kernel compatibility. This
promise is not extended to tool compatibility beyond the existing
guarantee that compatibility will not be broken within a three-level
stable release [3.0.2, 3.0.3, etc.].

Add a clear warning about this, and fix the few places relying on it.
In addition, add some padding to arch_shared_info, to allow future
additions to the structure without breaking known offsets of members
following it in the shared info.
