In order to add xen EFI frambebuffer video support, it is required to add
xen-efi's new video type (XEN_VGATYPE_EFI_LFB) case and handle it in the
function xen_init_vga and set the video type to VIDEO_TYPE_EFI to enable
efi video mode.

All the original Xen headers have xen_pfn_t as mfn and pfn type, however
when they have been imported in Linux, xen_pfn_t has been replaced with
unsigned long. That might work for x86 and ia64 but it does not for arm.
Bring back xen_pfn_t and let each architecture define xen_pfn_t as they
see fit.

This patch provide Xen physical cpus online/offline sys interface.
User can use it for their own purpose, like power saving:
by offlining some cpus when light workload it save power greatly.
Its basic workflow is, user online/offline cpu via sys interface,
then hypercall xen to implement, after done xen inject virq back to dom0,
and then dom0 sync cpu status.

This patch introduces new structures of grant table V2, grant table V2 is an
extension from V1. Grant table is shared between guest and Xen, and Xen is
responsible to do corresponding work for grant operations, such as: figure
out guest's grant table version, perform different actions based on
different grant table version, etc. Although full-page structure of V2
is different from V1, it play the same role as V1.

This patch provides a shim between the kernel-internal cleancache
API (see Documentation/mm/cleancache.txt) and the Xen Transcendent
Memory ABI (see http://oss.oracle.com/projects/tmem).
Xen tmem provides "hypervisor RAM" as an ephemeral page-oriented
pseudo-RAM store for cleancache pages, shared cleancache pages,
and frontswap pages. Tmem provides enterprise-quality concurrency,
full save/restore and live migration support, compression
and deduplication.
A presentation showing up to 8% faster performance and up to 52%
reduction in sectors read on a kernel compile workload, despite
aggressive in-kernel page reclamation ("self-ballooning") can be
found at:

Xen has a pte update function which will update a pte while preserving
its accessed and dirty bits. This means that ptep_modify_prot_start() can be
implemented as a simple read of the pte value. The hardware may
update the pte in the meantime, but ptep_modify_prot_commit() updates it while
preserving any changes that may have happened in the meantime.
The updates in ptep_modify_prot_commit() are batched if we're currently in lazy
mmu mode.
The mmu_update hypercall can take a batch of updates to perform, but
this code doesn't make particular use of that feature, in favour of
using generic multicall batching to get them all into the hypervisor.
The net effect of this is that each mprotect pte update turns from two
expensive trap-and-emulate faults into they hypervisor into a single
hypercall whose cost is amortized in a batched multicall.
