Pull Xen updates from David Vrabel:
 "Features and fixes:

   - Add pvscsi frontend and backend drivers.
   - Remove _PAGE_IOMAP PTE flag, freeing it for alternate uses.
   - Try and keep memory contiguous during PV memory setup (reduces
     SWIOTLB usage).
   - Allow front/back drivers to use threaded irqs.
   - Support large initrds in PV guests.
   - Fix PVH guests in preparation for Xen 4.5"

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.

We should prefer `struct pci_device_id` over `DEFINE_PCI_DEVICE_TABLE` to
meet kernel coding style guidelines.  This issue was reported by checkpatch.

A simplified version of the semantic patch that makes this change is as
follows (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/):

// &lt;smpl&gt;

@@
identifier i;
declarer name DEFINE_PCI_DEVICE_TABLE;
initializer z;
@@

- DEFINE_PCI_DEVICE_TABLE(i)
+ const struct pci_device_id i[]
= z;

// &lt;/smpl&gt;

And also mention that you cannot do any pci_reset_function,
pci_reset_slot, or such calls. This is because they take the same
lock as SysFS does - and we would end up with a dead-lock if
we call those functions.

When the toolstack wants us to drop or add an PCI device it
changes the XenBus state to Configuring - and as result of that
we find out which devices we should still be exporting out and
which ones not. For the ones we don't need anymore we need to
do an PCI reset so that it is ready for the next guest.

We were doing the operations of freeing and reset in the wrong
order. Granted nothing broke because the reset functions just
set bar-&gt;which = 0.

But nonethless this was incorrect.
