6efa20e49b xen: Support 64-bit PV guest receiving NMIs
This is based on a patch that Zhenzhong Duan had sent - which
was missing some of the remaining pieces. The kernel has the
logic to handle Xen-type-exceptions using the paravirt interface
in the assembler code (see PARAVIRT_ADJUST_EXCEPTION_FRAME -
pv_irq_ops.adjust_exception_frame and and INTERRUPT_RETURN -
pv_cpu_ops.iret).

That means the nmi handler (and other exception handlers) use
the hypervisor iret.

The other changes that would be neccessary for this would
be to translate the NMI_VECTOR to one of the entries on the
ipi_vector and make xen_send_IPI_mask_allbutself use different
events.

Fortunately for us commit 1db01b4903
(xen: Clean up apic ipi interface) implemented this and we piggyback
on the cleanup such that the apic IPI interface will pass the right
vector value for NMI.

With this patch we can trigger NMIs within a PV guest (only tested
x86_64).

For this to work with normal PV guests (not initial domain)
we need the domain to be able to use the APIC ops - they are
already implemented to use the Xen event channels. For that
to be turned on in a PV domU we need to remove the masking
of X86_FEATURE_APIC.

Incidentally that means kgdb will also now work within
a PV guest without using the 'nokgdbroundup' workaround.

Note that the 32-bit version is different and this patch
does not enable that.

c81611c4e9 xen: event channel arrays are xen_ulong_t and not unsigned long
On ARM we want these to be the same size on 32- and 64-bit.

This is an ABI change on ARM. X86 does not change.

792dc4f6cd xen: use our own eventchannel->irq path
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.

05e4d3169b x86: drop double underscores from header guards
Drop double underscores from header guards in arch/x86/include.  They
are used inconsistently, and are not necessary.

1965aae3c9 x86: Fix ASM_X86__ header guards
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.
