/*
 * Xen hypercall batching.
 *
 * Xen allows multiple hypercalls to be issued at once, using the
 * multicall interface.  This allows the cost of trapping into the
 * hypervisor to be amortized over several calls.
 *
 * This file implements a simple interface for multicalls.  There's a
 * per-cpu buffer of outstanding multicalls.  When you want to queue a
 * multicall for issuing, you can allocate a multicall slot for the
 * call and its arguments, along with storage for space which is
 * pointed to by the arguments (for passing pointers to structures,
 * etc).  When the multicall is actually issued, all the space for the
 * commands and allocated memory is freed for reuse.
 *
 * Multicalls are flushed whenever any of the buffers get full, or
 * when explicitly requested.  There's no way to get per-multicall
 * return results back.  It will BUG if any of the multicalls fail.
