We used to park a capped VCPU when it had ran its fair share, even
if the fair share was below its cap. With this change, make sure
we only park once a VCPU has overrun its actual cap.
We could also try to make the capping mechanism more accurate by
parking and unparking at a finer granularity (currently done on
30ms boundaries) but that'll be for a different time.

Allocate HVM guest memory in the libxc builder function rather
than in xend. Clean up fall out from these changes.
Todo: Fix ia64. Move PV builder to same model (it should allocate the
memory rather than xend doing so -- then it can avoid using
xc_get_pfn_list()).

This cleans up HVM start-of-day in Xen and means that the
HVM status of a domain is maintained from cradle to grave.

dom0_mem=[min:<min_amt>,][max:<max_amt>,][<amt>]
<min_amt>: The minimum amount of memory which should be allocated for dom0.
<max_amt>: The maximum amount of memory which should be allocated for dom0.
<amt>: The precise amount of memory to allocate for dom0.
Notes:
1. <amt> is clamped from below by <min_amt> and from above by available
memory and <max_amt>
2. <min_amt> is clamped from above by available memory and <max_amt>
3. <min_amt> is ignored if it is greater than <max_amt>
4. If <amt> is not specified, it is calculated as follows:
"All of memory is allocated to domain 0, minus 1/16th which is reserved
for uses such as DMA buffers (the reservation is clamped to 128MB)."
Each value can be specified as positive or negative:
If +ve: The specified amount is an absolute value.
If -ve: The specified amount is subtracted from total available memory.

Also, clean up the shadow *_propagate/fault routines.
This allows us to quickly dispatch some guest-not-present faults
and most MMIO accesses without taking the shadow lock.

channel upcalls.
The issue here was that the Xen platform PCI interrupt is only updated
when you return from the hypervisor into guest context, and so remained
asserted for a short interval after the interrupt handler ran. If
it happened that the first subsequent trap to the hypervisor was
for unmasking the 8259 interrupt again, the unmasking caused the interrupt
to be reinjected. This caused an edge on the chaining interrupt from
the slave PIC to the master. The platform interrupt on the slave
would then be cleared as we returned to the guest, and so you
eventually end up injecting an interrupt on the master chained
interrupt with nothing pending on the slave, which shows up as
a spurious interrupt in the guest.

domains with PV drivers loaded. This patch creates a new PV-on-HVM
module, reboot.ko, which, when loaded, creates control/reboot_module
in the store. The tools notice this, and disable the watch which would
normally destroy HVM domains which are the target of an xm shutdown
command, allowing the reboot module to shut the domain down cleanly.

Probably still not catching all possible cases, but using static
(where not already the case) makes the code size smaller, and using __initdata
has the usual advantages.
