Impact: fix potential oops during app-initiated LDT manipulation
The underlying hypercall has differing argument requirements on 32-
and 64-bit.

The virtually mapped percpu space causes us two problems:
- for hypercalls which take an mfn, we need to do a full pagetable
walk to convert the percpu va into an mfn, and
- when a hypercall requires a page to be mapped RO via all its aliases,
we need to make sure its RO in both the percpu mapping and in the
linear mapping
This primarily affects the gdt and the vcpu info structure.

When testing for a dom0/initial/privileged domain, make sure the
predicate evaluates to a compile-time 0 if CONFIG_XEN_DOM0 isn't
enabled. This will make most of the dom0 code evaporate without
much more effort.

Rather than overloading vectors for event channels, take full
responsibility for mapping an event channel to irq directly. With
this patch Xen has its own irq allocator.
When the kernel gets an event channel upcall, it maps the event
channel number to an irq and injects it into the normal interrupt
path.

On an x86 system which doesn't support global mappings,
__supported_pte_mask has _PAGE_GLOBAL clear, to make sure it never
appears in the PTE. pfn_pte() and so on will enforce it with:
static inline pte_t pfn_pte(unsigned long page_nr, pgprot_t pgprot)
{
return __pte((((phys_addr_t)page_nr << PAGE_SHIFT) |
pgprot_val(pgprot)) & __supported_pte_mask);
}
However, we overload _PAGE_GLOBAL with _PAGE_PROTNONE on non-present
ptes to distinguish them from swap entries. However, applying
__supported_pte_mask indiscriminately will clear the bit and corrupt the
pte.
I guess the best fix is to only apply __supported_pte_mask to present
ptes. This seems like the right solution to me, as it means we can
completely ignore the issue of overlaps between the present pte bits and
the non-present pte-as-swap entry use of the bits.
__supported_pte_mask contains the set of flags we support on the
current hardware. We also use bits in the pte for things like
logically present ptes with no permissions, and swap entries for
swapped out pages. We should only apply __supported_pte_mask to
present ptes, because otherwise we may destroy other information being
stored in the ptes.

Impact: cleanup
hypervisor.h had accumulated a lot of crud, including lots of spurious
#includes. Clean it all up, and go around fixing up everything else
accordingly.

Drop double underscores from header guards in arch/x86/include. They
are used inconsistently, and are not necessary.

Change header guards named "ASM_X86__*" to "_ASM_X86_*" since:
a. the double underscore is ugly and pointless.
b. no leading underscore violates namespace constraints.
