tools/libxc, tools/libelf: Relicense under LGPL v2.1
Relicense these two libraries under LGPL v2.1 only except where
individual files already included the "or later" provision.
Copyright holders have been contacted by Stephen Spector and have all
agreed this change.
Removed tools/libxc/ia64/aclinux.h since it appeared to be
unused. There is a separate, more up to date, copy in
xen/include/acpi/platform/aclinux.h which does appear to be used.
Clarify the license of MiniOS privcmd.h under the same terms as other
tools/include/xen-sys headers.

Remove all the magic surrounding the special Xen devices in Linux
specific code whereby we attempt to figure out what the correct
major:minor number is and check the the existing device has these
numbers etc. In 2010 we really should be able to trust that the
platform has created the devices correctly or provide correct
configuration settings such that they are without resorting to tearing
down the platform configured state and rebuilding it.
tools/hotplug/Linux/xen-backend.rules already contains the necessary
udev rules to create /dev/xen/evtchn and friends in the correct place.

This patch makes xc_linux properly deal with:
1. discovering and creating device nodes if necessary
2. the new form of xen/<dev> device names soon to be used by the
kernel
This changes the logic slightly:
- If a device node already exists with the proper name, then it uses
it as-is, assuming it has already been correctly created.
- If the path doesn't exist, or it exists but isn't a device node,
and
it has successfully found the major/minor for the device, then
(re)create the device node.
Since this logic is identical for gntdev and evtchn, make a common
function to handle both.

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.

Just like the kernel, the fallback implementation of
xc_map_foreign_bulk() should clear the error indication array upon
success.
Also, a few allocations were needlessly using calloc() instead of
malloc().
Finally, in xc_domain_save() allocate the error indicator array once
(along with the other arrays) instead of using realloc() (without
error checking) in the loop body.

Replace all calls to xc_map_foreign_batch() where the caller doesn't
look at the passed in array to check for errors by calls to
xc_map_foreign_pages(). Replace all remaining calls by such to the
newly introduced xc_map_foreign_bulk().
As a sideband modification (needed while writing the patch to ensure
they're unused) eliminate unused parameters to
uncanonicalize_pagetable() and xc_map_foreign_batch_single(). Also
unmap live_p2m_frame_list earlier in map_and_save_p2m_table(),
reducing the peak amount of virtual address space required.
All supported OSes other than Linux continue to use the old ioctl for
the time being.
Also change libxc's MAJOR to 4.0 to reflect the API change.

libxc accepts the new return code from privcmd mmap, which indicates a page
being mapped is actually paged out. Spin until the page is paged in and return
as normal to the caller. This allows memory paging to work transparently with
existing tools.
Since libxc runs in user-space, as does the pager, both processes will be
scheduled and run. This enables the page to be paged in without needing to
spin in kernel mode (which would cause a dead-lock).

Modify xc_map_foreign_range and xc_map_foreign_ranges to call
mmap_map_foreign_batch. This eliminates the need for multiple privcmd
mmap ioctls. Now only IOCTL_PRIVCMD_MMAPBATCH is required.

This patch fixes the xc_map_grant_refs() function, which would fail
because, instead of passing the malloc()-ed ioctl argument pointer to
the ioctl, the address of this pointer was being passed instead.
