be under /var/log/xen instead of under /var/log directly. This has
the advantage of cleaning things up a little and also can make it
easier to restrict the permissions needed by xend.

- moves the TPM frontend completely into the char/tpm directory where it
is a plug-in to the generic TPM driver
- removes a now obsolete include file
- adapts part of the documentation
- fixes some locking problems where copy_to/from_user was called with
IRQs blocked

For the "bogus" argument code, avoid changing the argument list so
that errors can be reported consistently.

* adds a C-based security policy translation tool to Xen (secpol_xml2bin)
and removes the current Java
security policy translator (Java dependencies). The C-based tool
integrates into the Xen source tree build
and install (using gnome libxml2 for XML parsing). See install.txt.
* introduces security labels and related tools. Users can now use
semantic-rich label names to put security-tags
on domains. See example.txt, policy.txt.
* moves the security configuration (currently ACM_USE_SECURITY_POLICY)
from xen/Rules.mk
into a separate top-level Security.mk file (it is needed by the
tools/security and xen/acm).
Both xen/acm and tools/security are built during the Xen build process
only if ACM_USE_SECURITY_POLICY
is not ACM_NULL_POLICY (which is the default setting).

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)

Rename Xen public interfaces.
1. hypervisor-if.h is now xen.h
2. hypervisor-ifs/ directory is now:
<include/public/...> in Xen
<asm/xen-public/...> in Linux
<xen/...> in user space
