REX.R needs to be decoded. Since it is simple to do, faster, and
smaller, let hardware do 32- and 64-bit BSWAP. 16-bite BSWAP is
undefined: emulate with observed behaviour (write zero).

Firstly, it should be ignored when used with any opcode for which it
is undefined. Secondly, the count register (rCX) width depends on
address size.

It didn't have any sensible error checking. Make all callers
use gva_to_gfn translation and check the result. MMIO and PIO
callers inject pagefaults to the guest iof the non-IO address is
not mapped.

Ensure that all and only those page table entries that have their
present bit set undergo p2m/m2p translation in all relevant places.
This should fix migration issues with _PAGE_PROTNONE pages which
previously could retain MFNs in PTEs while having the present bit
clear (and thus were not getting (un)canonicalized during save/
restore).
Many thanks to Keir Fraser for his analysis, suggestions, and
corrections.

PAE compat guests on 64bit hypervisors are shadowed
using 4-on-4 with special handling for the top level
L4 page and the L2E M2P mappings.

Also consolidate time-xen.c in giving get_time_values_from_xen() a
'cpu' parameter to match other functions (this consolidation could of
course also be done the other way around, but I think this way the
resulting code can be more efficient).

It's always an error to try to use sections on an executable; the
segments in the phdr are definitive.
Unfortunately we cannot drop SHT_NOTE support completely due to a
binutils bug which causes kernels to have the offset field of the
PT_NOTE phdr set to zero:
http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=594
This bug is present in binutils 2.17 although some distros have
backported the fix.
Therefore we simply prefer a PT_NOTE segment if we find one otherwise
we still use the SHT_NOTE section (and then the old __xen_guest
section).
Based on a patch from Jeremy Fitzhardinge.
Also added XEN_ELFNOTE_HV_START_LOW to readnotes.

Also vmalloc_sync_all() is only defined for x86 architectures so make
use of it in driver code conditional on CONFIG_X86.

Enables tapdisk to chain an arbitrary number of VDIs, propagating reads of
holes in children to their parent images. Introduces two new functions to the
tapdisk interface to facilitate this. Modifies the QCoW plugin to take
advantage of these changes, thus providing support for arbitrarily long chains
of QCoW image types.
x86-64's Lx_DISALLOW_MASK values weren't properly taking care of the
NX bit, L3 and L4 were needlessly customized, and the compat mode L3
one wasn't really matching native PAE.
