The GSI callback (and later PCI_INTX) is a level triggered interrupt. It
is asserted when an event channel is delivered to vCPU0, and is supposed
to be cleared when the vcpu_info->evtchn_upcall_pending field for vCPU0
is cleared again.
Thankfully, Xen does *not* assert the GSI if the guest sets its own
evtchn_upcall_pending field; we only need to assert the GSI when we
have delivered an event for ourselves. So that's the easy part, kind of.
There's a slight complexity in that we need to hold the BQL before we
can call qemu_set_irq(), and we definitely can't do that while holding
our own port_lock (because we'll need to take that from the qemu-side
functions that the PV backend drivers will call). So if we end up
wanting to set the IRQ in a context where we *don't* already hold the
BQL, defer to a BH.
However, we *do* need to poll for the evtchn_upcall_pending flag being
cleared. In an ideal world we would poll that when the EOI happens on
the PIC/IOAPIC. That's how it works in the kernel with the VFIO eventfd
pairs — one is used to trigger the interrupt, and the other works in the
other direction to 'resample' on EOI, and trigger the first eventfd
again if the line is still active.
However, QEMU doesn't seem to do that. Even VFIO level interrupts seem
to be supported by temporarily unmapping the device's BARs from the
guest when an interrupt happens, then trapping *all* MMIO to the device
and sending the 'resample' event on *every* MMIO access until the IRQ
is cleared! Maybe in future we'll plumb the 'resample' concept through
QEMU's irq framework but for now we'll do what Xen itself does: just
check the flag on every vmexit if the upcall GSI is known to be
asserted.

Add the array of virq ports to each vCPU so that we can deliver timers,
debug ports, etc. Global virqs are allocated against vCPU 0 initially,
but can be migrated to other vCPUs (when we implement that).
The kernel needs to know about VIRQ_TIMER in order to accelerate timers,
so tell it via KVM_XEN_VCPU_ATTR_TYPE_TIMER. Also save/restore the value
of the singleshot timer across migration, as the kernel will handle the
hypercalls automatically now.

The kvm_xen_inject_vcpu_callback_vector() function will either deliver
the per-vCPU local APIC vector (as an MSI), or just kick the vCPU out
of the kernel to trigger KVM's automatic delivery of the global vector.
Support for asserting the GSI/PCI_INTX callbacks will come later.
Also add kvm_xen_get_vcpu_info_hva() which returns the vcpu_info of
a given vCPU.

For the shared info page and for grant tables, Xen shares its own pages
from the "Xen heap" to the guest. The guest requests that a given page
from a certain address space (XENMAPSPACE_shared_info, etc.) be mapped
to a given GPA using the XENMEM_add_to_physmap hypercall.
To support that in qemu when *emulating* Xen, create a memory region
(migratable) and allow it to be mapped as an overlay when requested.
Xen theoretically allows the same page to be mapped multiple times
into the guest, but that's hard to track and reinstate over migration,
so we automatically *unmap* any previous mapping when creating a new
one. This approach has been used in production with.... a non-trivial
number of guests expecting true Xen, without any problems yet being
noticed.
This adds just the shared info page for now. The grant tables will be
a larger region, and will need to be overlaid one page at a time. I
think that means I need to create separate aliases for each page of
the overall grant_frames region, so that they can be mapped individually.

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 just initializes the basic Xen support in KVM for now. Only permitted
on TYPE_PC_MACHINE because that's where the sysbus devices for Xen heap
overlay, event channel, grant tables and other stuff will exist. There's
no point having the basic hypercall support if nothing else works.
Provide sysemu/kvm_xen.h and a kvm_xen_get_caps() which will be used
later by support devices.
