Carlo Nonato 44dd6d4a12 xen/common: add cache coloring common code
Last Level Cache (LLC) coloring allows to partition the cache in smaller
chunks called cache colors.

Since not all architectures can actually implement it, add a HAS_LLC_COLORING
Kconfig option.
LLC_COLORS_ORDER Kconfig option has a range maximum of 10 (2^10 = 1024)
because that's the number of colors that fit in a 4 KiB page when integers
are 4 bytes long.

LLC colors are a property of the domain, so struct domain has to be extended.

The Xen Hypervisor documentation
================================
.. note::
Xen's Sphinx/RST documentation is a work in progress. The existing
documentation can be found at https://xenbits.xen.org/docs/
Xen is an open source, bare metal hypervisor. It runs as the most privileged
piece of software on the system, and shares the resources of the hardware
between virtual machines. See :doc:`admin-guide/introduction` for an
introduction to a Xen system.
User documentation
------------------
This is documentation for an administrator of a Xen system. It is intended
for someone who is not necesserily a developer, has installed Xen from their
preferred distribution, and is attempting to run virtual machines and
configure the system.

intended for OS developers trying to use a Xen feature, and for Xen developers
to avoid breaking things.
