Internally, xenbus_printf uses memory allocation, so it can fail under
memory pressure, leaving the input device configured as absolute with the
backend supplying relative coordinates.

Based on include/xen/mm.h [1], Linux is mistakenly using MFN when GFN
is meant, I suspect this is because the first support for Xen was for
PV. This resulted in some misimplementation of helpers on ARM and
confused developers about the expected behavior.

For instance, with pfn_to_mfn, we expect to get an MFN based on the name.
Although, if we look at the implementation on x86, it's returning a GFN.

For clarity and avoid new confusion, replace any reference to mfn with
gfn in any helpers used by PV drivers. The x86 code will still keep some
reference of pfn_to_mfn which may be used by all kind of guests
No changes as been made in the hypercall field, even
though they may be invalid, in order to keep the same as the defintion
in xen repo.

Note that page_to_mfn has been renamed to xen_page_to_gfn to avoid a
name to close to the KVM function gfn_to_page.

Take also the opportunity to simplify simple construction such
as pfn_to_mfn(page_to_pfn(page)) into xen_page_to_gfn. More complex clean up
will come in follow-up patches.

xenkbd_disconnect_backend doesn't free grant table entry.  This bug affects
live migration.

xenkbd_disconnect_backend uses gnttab_end_foreign_access_ref to handle
grant table entry which doesn't really free an entry.

Thus every time we do xenkbd_resume, grant table entry increses by one. As
an grant table entry occupies 8 bytes, an grant table page has at most 512
entries. Every 512 times we do xenkdb_resume, grant table pages increses by
one.

After around 3500 times of live migration, grant table pages will increase
by 7, causing too many pages to populate and hitting max_pages limit when
assigning pages.Thus assign_pages will fail, so will live migration.

The DEFINE_XENBUS_DRIVER() macro looks a bit weird and causes sparse
errors.

Replace the uses with standard structure definitions instead.  This is
similar to pci and usb device registration.

to disable that they can set:

  xen_platform_pci=0

or

   Ditto for the network one ('nics').
 - (v2) if running in HVM, and if the user wanted 'xen_emul_unplug=unnecessary'
   then load block PV driver, and also setup the legacy IDE paths.
   In (v3) make it actually load PV drivers.

[v2: Add extra logic to handle the myrid ways 'xen_emul_unplug'
can be used per Ian and Stefano suggestion]
[v3: Make the unnecessary case work properly]
[v4: s/disks/ide-disks/ spotted by Fabio]

CONFIG_HOTPLUG is going away as an option so __devinit is no longer
needed.

<title>xen-kbdfront: handle backend CLOSED without CLOSING</title>

Backend drivers shouldn't transistion to CLOSED unless the frontend is
CLOSED.  If a backend does transition to CLOSED too soon then the
frontend may not see the CLOSING state and will not properly shutdown.

So, treat an unexpected backend CLOSED state the same as CLOSING.

<title>Xen: consolidate and simplify struct xenbus_driver instantiation</title>

<content type='text'>
The 'name', 'owner', and 'mod_name' members are redundant with the
identically named fields in the 'driver' sub-structure. Rather than
switching each instance to specify these fields explicitly, introduce
a macro to simplify this.

Eliminate further redundancy by allowing the drvname argument to
DEFINE_XENBUS_DRIVER() to be blank (in which case the first entry from
the ID table will be used for .driver.name).

Also eliminate the questionable xenbus_register_{back,front}end()
wrappers - their sole remaining purpose was the checking of the
'owner' field, proper setting of which shouldn't be an issue anymore
when the macro gets used.

v2: Restore DRV_NAME for the driver name in xen-pciback.
