This patch eliminate the global variables in libxenctrl (used for
logging and error reporting).
Instead the information which was in the global variables is now in a
new xc_interface* opaque structure, which xc_interface open returns
instead of the raw file descriptor; furthermore, logging is done via
xentoollog.
There are three new parameters to xc_interface_open to control the
logging, but existing callers can just pass "0" for all three to get
the old behaviour.
All libxc callers have been adjusted accordingly.
Also update QEMU_TAG for corresponding qemu change.

This patch support exchange a page for a suspended PV guest from user
space.
The basic idea to offline a page is:
1) mark a page offline pending
2) If the page is owned by a HVM domain, user have to live migrate it.
In future, with stub-domain support, we can also exchange the page
without migration.
3) If the page is owned by a PV domain, we will try to exchange the
offline pending page to a new one and free the old page.
This patch achieves item 3.
The method to exchange the offline pending page for PV domain is:
1) Suspend the guest.
2) If the page is being granted out, return with offline pending.
3) Get a copy for the content
4) Scan all page table page to see if any reference to the offending
page, if yes, make the entry to be non-present to reduce the reference
count.
5) After update all page tables, user space tools will try to exchange
the old page. If the new mfn has no reference anymore (i.e.
count_info & count_mask =3D 1), the exchange will allocate a new page,
update the m2p and return success, otherwise it will return fail.
6) If step 5 is success, user space tools will update the content of
the new page change the p2m table, and change all entries scaned in
step 4 to point to new entry.
if step failed, it will try to undo step 4 to revert page table.
7) Resume the guest.

The suspend event channel functions are arch independent code
which xc_save uses.
The changeset of 19382:a5f497f02e34 cause link error on ia64.
This patch moves the functions into arch common file from
x86 specific file xc_domain_save.c
