active at startup; this works by adding a module line into the grub
configuration file and placing the binary policy generated by the
policy tool into the boot directory; This assumes that a maximum of
one module line is used for the initrd in the grub configuration
file - Question: do users pass more than one module to the kernel?
- enables the policy hypervisor call on x86/64
- some function prototypes moved to include files
- moves the version number in the java tool up to the current
version (a better way of doing this will be submitted soon)

Even though we accounted for lost ticks, the accounting was not precise.
Specifically, we didn't account for the delay in calling the ac_timer
handler.

The original gdb server patch will cause the new vmx guest break the=20
old one. This patch make the arch_set_guest_info modify the correct
vmcs and also skip modifying during creating.

Without this, we may be saving the IDT info from the wrong cpu into the
vmcs.
This makes domU work in the presence of VMX domains on SMP/HT enabled
machines.

Right now, we have an exposure between the time the MSR is written
and used by an instruction such as syscall. If there is a context
switch and we do vmx_do_restore_msrs(), everything goes fine. But
if we don't, then we execute the syscall with the wrong MSR.

Based on an initial patch from Don Fry at IBM.
Still TODO:
1. Testing
2. NTP synchronisation
3. Fix wallclock interface a bit
4. Support for platform timers other than PIT (e.g., HPET, IBM Cyclone)
5. Scale 64-bit TSC diffs instead of 32-bit, just for sanity
6. Error-correcting scale factor is still slightly wrong
6. More testing

Not all vectors go through do_IRQ(). It's possible to look up the handler
in the IDT and call that one, but it'll result in two trap frames.

byte unit, instead of KB unit. This patch fixs the problem.
