Dario Faggioli af589e1a9c xl: move away from the use of cpumap for hard affinity
and start using the vcpu_hard_affinity array instead. This is done
as when, in a subsequent patch ("libxl/xl: make it possible to
specify soft-affinity in domain config file") we will become able
to deal with soft affinity, code can be shared.

This change also enables more advanced VCPU to PCPU (hard, for now)
affinity specification, in case a list is used, like:

      cpus = ["3-4", "2-6,^4"]

What it means is that VCPU 0 must be pinned to PCPU 3,4 and VCPU 1
to PCPUs 2,3,5,6 (before this change, cpus=[xx, yy] only supported
single values). Of course, the old (e.g., cpus=[2, 3]) syntax
continues to work.

xen-bugtool
===========

The xen-bugtool command line application will collate the Xen dmesg output,
details of the hardware configuration of your machine, information about the
build of Xen that you are using, plus, if you allow it, various logs.

The information collated can either be posted to a Xen Bugzilla bug (this bug
must already exist in the system, and you must be a registered user there), or
it can be saved as a .tar.bz2 for sending or archiving.

The collated logs may contain private information, and if you are at all
worried about that, you should not use this tool, or you should explicitly
exclude those logs from the archive.

xen-bugtool is wholly interactive, so simply run it, and answer the questions.
