The HVMOP_set_evtchn_upcall_vector hypercall sets the per-vCPU upcall
vector, to be delivered to the local APIC just like an MSI (with an EOI).
This takes precedence over the system-wide delivery method set by the
HVMOP_set_param hypercall with HVM_PARAM_CALLBACK_IRQ. It's used by
Windows and Xen (PV shim) guests but normally not by Linux.

Handle the hypercall to set a per vcpu info, and also wire up the default
vcpu_info in the shared_info page for the first 32 vCPUs.
To avoid deadlock within KVM a vCPU thread must set its *own* vcpu_info
rather than it being set from the context in which the hypercall is
invoked.
Add the vcpu_info (and default) GPA to the vmstate_x86_cpu for migration,
and restore it in kvm_arch_put_registers() appropriately.

It allows to shutdown itself via hypercall with any of the 3 reasons:
1) self-reboot
2) shutdown
3) crash
Implementing SCHEDOP_shutdown sub op let us handle crashes gracefully rather
than leading to triple faults if it remains unimplemented.
In addition, the SHUTDOWN_soft_reset reason is used for kexec, to reset
Xen shared pages and other enlightenments and leave a clean slate for the
new kernel without the hypervisor helpfully writing information at
unexpected addresses.

This means handling the new exit reason for Xen but still
crashing on purpose. As we implement each of the hypercalls
we will then return the right return code.
