Keir Fraser bb59a254af pv-on-hvm: fixes for unmodified drivers build and modern Linux
- The adjustments to README and overrides.mk are generic.
- The removal of explicit linux/config.h inclusion should also not
  cause any issues.
- The introduction of irq_handler_t should eliminiate warnings on
  2.6.19+ kernels (I didn't check they're there, but since the
  request_irq prototype changed, I'm sure there's at least
  one. However, as a result changes to the Linux tree are expected to
  be required.
- The change setup_xen_features -> xen_setup_features follows the
  naming in mainline 2.6.23 but would apparently also require changes
  to the Linux tree.
- The changes SA_* -> IRQF_ and  pci_module_init ->
  pci_register_driver should also not cause issues.

To build:
1. ./mkbuildtree
NB. You can override paths to Xen sources and a (stub) XenLinux
build tree via the XEN and XL environment variable.
2. make -C /path/to/kernel/build M=$PWD modules
NB. This is your native kernel build tree (or a distro provided
stub), not the XenLinux sources referred to in step 1.
You get four modules, xen-platform-pci.ko, xenbus.ko, xen-vbd.ko, and
xen-vnif.ko. Load xen-platform-pci first, then xenbus, and then
whichever of xen-vbd and xen-vnif you happen to need.
