Pull ADM Xen support from Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk:

  Features:
   * Allow a Linux guest to boot as initial domain and as normal guests
     on Xen on ARM (specifically ARMv7 with virtualized extensions).  PV
     console, block and network frontend/backends are working.
  Bug-fixes:
   * Fix compile linux-next fallout.
   * Fix PVHVM bootup crashing.

  The Xen-unstable hypervisor (so will be 4.3 in a ~6 months), supports
  ARMv7 platforms.

  The goal in implementing this architecture is to exploit the hardware
  as much as possible.  That means use as little as possible of PV
  operations (so no PV MMU) - and use existing PV drivers for I/Os
  (network, block, console, etc).  This is similar to how PVHVM guests
  operate in X86 platform nowadays - except that on ARM there is no need
  for QEMU.  The end result is that we share a lot of the generic Xen
  drivers and infrastructure.

  Details on how to compile/boot/etc are available at this Wiki:

    http://wiki.xen.org/wiki/Xen_ARMv7_with_Virtualization_Extensions

  and this blog has links to a technical discussion/presentations on the
  overall architecture:

Merge tag 'uapi-prep-20121002' of git://git.infradead.org/users/dhowells/linux-headers

Pull preparatory patches for user API disintegration from David Howells:
 "The patches herein prepare for the extraction of the Userspace API
  bits from the various header files named in the Kbuild files.

  New subdirectories are created under either include/uapi/ or
  arch/x/include/uapi/ that correspond to the subdirectory containing
  that file under include/ or arch/x/include/.

  The new subdirs under the uapi/ directory are populated with Kbuild
  files that mostly do nothing at this time.  Further patches will
  disintegrate the headers in each original directory and fill in the
  Kbuild files as they do it.

  These patches also:

   (1) fix up #inclusions of "foo.h" rather than <foo.h>.

   (2) Remove some redundant #includes from the DRM code.

   (3) Make the kernel build infrastructure handle Kbuild files both in
       the old places and the new UAPI place that both specify headers
       to be exported.

   (4) Fix some kernel tools that #include kernel headers during their
       build.

  I have compile tested this with allyesconfig against x86_64,
  allmodconfig against i386 and a scattering of additional defconfigs of
  other arches.  Prepared for main script

Daniel De Graaf 5c13f80677 xen/sysfs: Use XENVER_guest_handle to query UUID
This hypercall has been present since Xen 3.1, and is the preferred
method for a domain to obtain its UUID. Fall back to the xenstore method
if using an older version of Xen (which returns -ENOSYS).

Stefano Stabellini 256f631f1f xen/arm: Introduce xen_ulong_t for unsigned long
All the original Xen headers have xen_ulong_t as unsigned long type, however
when they have been imported in Linux, xen_ulong_t has been replaced with
unsigned long. That might work for x86 and ia64 but it does not for arm.
Bring back xen_ulong_t and let each architecture define xen_ulong_t as they
see fit.

Also explicitly size pointers (__DEFINE_GUEST_HANDLE) to 64 bit.


Changes in v3:

- remove the incorrect changes to multicall_entry;
- remove the change to apic_physbase.

Jeremy Fitzhardinge a42089dd35 xen: Add Xen interface header files
Add Xen interface header files. These are taken fairly directly from
the Xen tree, but somewhat rearranged to suit the kernel's conventions.

Define macros and inline functions for doing hypercalls into the
hypervisor.
