Re-structure Xen HVM support so that:
	- Xen is detected and hypercalls can be performed very
	  early in system startup.
	- Xen interrupt services are implemented using FreeBSD's native
	  interrupt delivery infrastructure.
	- the Xen interrupt service implementation is shared between PV
	  and HVM guests.
	- Xen interrupt handlers can optionally use a filter handler
	  in order to avoid the overhead of dispatch to an interrupt
	  thread.
	- interrupt load can be distributed among all available CPUs.
	- the overhead of accessing the emulated local and I/O apics
	  on HVM is removed for event channel port events.
	- a similar optimization can eventually, and fairly easily,
	  be used to optimize MSI.

sys/i386/xen/exception.s:
sys/x86/include/segments.h:
	Reserve IDT vector 0x93 for the Xen event channel upcall
	interrupt handler.  On Hypervisors that support the direct
	vector callback feature, we can request that this vector be
	called directly by an injected HVM interrupt event, instead
	of a simulated PCI interrupt on the Xen platform PCI device.
	This avoids all of the overhead of dealing with the emulated
	I/O APIC and local APIC.  It also means that the Hypervisor
	can inject these events on any CPU, allowing upcalls for
	different ports to be handled in parallel.

sys/amd64/amd64/mp_machdep.c:

	Map Xen per-vcpu area during AP startup.

	Increase the FreeBSD IRQ vector table to include space

sys/i386/include/pcpu.h:
	Remove Xen HVM per-cpu variable data.  These fields are now

sys/amd64/include/xen/xen-os.h:
sys/i386/include/xen/xen-os.h:
sys/xen/xen-os.h:
	Remove constants, macros, and functions unused in FreeBSD's Xen
	support.

sys/xen/xen-os.h:
sys/i386/xen/xen_machdep.c:
sys/x86/xen/hvm.c:
	Introduce new functions xen_domain(), xen_pv_domain(), and
	xen_hvm_domain().  These are used in favor of #ifdefs so that
	FreeBSD can dynamically detect and adapt to the presence of
	a hypervisor.  The goal is to have an HVM optimized GENERIC,
	but more is necessary before this is possible.

sys/amd64/amd64/machdep.c:
sys/dev/xen/xenpci/xenpcivar.h:
sys/dev/xen/xenpci/xenpci.c:
sys/x86/xen/hvm.c:
sys/sys/kernel.h:
	Refactor magic ioport, Hypercall table and Hypervisor shared
	information page setup, and move it to a dedicated HVM support
	module.

	HVM mode initialization is now triggered during the
	SI_SUB_HYPERVISOR phase of system startup.  This currently
	occurs just after the kernel VM is fully setup which is
	just enough infrastructure to allow the hypercall table
	and shared info page to be properly mapped.

sys/xen/hvm.h:
sys/x86/xen/hvm.c:
	Add definitions and a method for configuring Hypervisor event
	delievery via a direct vector callback.

sys/amd64/include/xen/xen-os.h:
sys/x86/xen/hvm.c:

sys/conf/files:
sys/conf/files.amd64:
sys/conf/files.i386:

sys/xen/xenstore/xenstore.c:
sys/xen/evtchn/evtchn_dev.c:
sys/dev/xen/console/console.c:
sys/dev/xen/console/xencons_ring.c
	Adjust drivers to use new xen_intr_*() API.

sys/dev/xen/blkback/blkback.c:
	Since blkback defers all event handling to a taskqueue,
	convert this task queue to a "fast" taskqueue, and schedule
	it via an interrupt filter.  This avoids an unnecessary
	ithread context switch.

sys/xen/xenstore/xenstore.c:
	The xenstore driver is MPSAFE.  Indicate as much when
	registering its interrupt handler.

sys/xen/xenbus/xenbus.c:
sys/xen/xenbus/xenbusvar.h:
	Remove unused event channel APIs.

sys/xen/evtchn.h:
	Remove all kernel Xen interrupt service API definitions
	from this file.  It is now only used for structure and
	ioctl definitions related to the event channel userland
	device driver.

	Update the definitions in this file to match those from
	NetBSD.  Implementing this interface will be necessary for
	Dom0 support.

sys/xen/evtchn/evtchnvar.h:
	Add a header file for implemenation internal APIs related
	to managing event channels event delivery.  This is used
	to allow, for example, the event channel userland device
	driver to access low-level routines that typical kernel
	consumers of event channel services should never access.

sys/xen/interface/event_channel.h:
sys/xen/xen_intr.h:
	Standardize on the evtchn_port_t type for referring to
	an event channel port id.  In order to prevent low-level
	event channel APIs from leaking to kernel consumers who
	should not have access to this data, the type is defined
	twice: Once in the Xen provided event_channel.h, and again
	in xen/xen_intr.h.  The double declaration is protected by
	__XEN_EVTCHN_PORT_DEFINED__ to ensure it is never declared
	twice within a given compilation unit.

sys/xen/xen_intr.h:
sys/xen/evtchn/evtchn.c:
sys/x86/xen/xen_intr.c:
sys/dev/xen/xenpci/evtchn.c:
sys/dev/xen/xenpci/xenpcivar.h:
	New implementation of Xen interrupt services.  This is
	similar in many respects to the i386 PV implementation with
	the exception that events for bound to event channel ports
	(i.e. not IPI, virtual IRQ, or physical IRQ) are further
	optimized to avoid mask/unmask operations that aren't
	necessary for these edge triggered events.

	Stubs exist for supporting physical IRQ binding, but will
	need additional work before this implementation can be
	fully shared between PV and HVM.

sys/amd64/amd64/mp_machdep.c:
sys/i386/i386/mp_machdep.c:
sys/i386/xen/mp_machdep.c
sys/x86/xen/hvm.c:
	Add support for placing vcpu_info into an arbritary memory
	page instead of using HYPERVISOR_shared_info-&gt;vcpu_info.
	This allows the creation of domains with more than 32 vcpus.

sys/i386/i386/machdep.c:
sys/i386/xen/clock.c:
sys/i386/xen/xen_machdep.c:
sys/i386/xen/exception.s:
	Add support for new event channle implementation.

<content type='text'>
Move FreeBSD from interface version 0x00030204 to 0x00030208.
Updates are required to our grant table implementation before we
can bump this further.

sys/xen/hvm.h:
	Replace the implementation of hvm_get_parameter(), formerly located
	in sys/xen/interface/hvm/params.h.  Linux has a similar file which
	primarily stores this function.

sys/xen/xenstore/xenstore.c:
	Include new xen/hvm.h header file to get hvm_get_parameter().

sys/amd64/include/xen/xen-os.h:
sys/i386/include/xen/xen-os.h:
	Correctly protect function definition and variables from being
	included into assembly files in xen-os.h

	Xen memory barriers are now prefixed with "xen_" to avoid conflicts
	with OS native primatives.  Define Xen memory barriers in terms of
	the native FreeBSD primatives.

FreeBSD's front and back Xen blkif interface drivers.

sys/dev/xen/blkfront/block.h:
sys/dev/xen/blkfront/blkfront.c:
sys/dev/xen/blkback/blkback.c:
	Replace FreeBSD specific multi-page ring impelementation with
	support for both the Citrix and Amazon/RedHat versions of this
	extension.

sys/dev/xen/blkfront/blkfront.c:
	o Add a per-instance sysctl tree that exposes all negotiated
	  transport parameters (ring pages, max number of requests,
	  max request size, max number of segments).
	o In blkfront_vdevice_to_unit() add a missing return statement
	  so that we properly identify the unit number for high numbered
	  xvd devices.

sys/dev/xen/blkback/blkback.c:
	o Add static dtrace probes for several events in this driver.
	o Defer connection shutdown processing until the front-end
	  enters the closed state.  This avoids prematurely tearing
	  down the connection when buggy front-ends transition to the
	  closing state, even though the device is open and they
	  veto the close request from the tool stack.
	o Add nodes for maximum request size and the number of active
	  ring pages to the exising, per-instance, sysctl tree.
	o Miscelaneous style cleanup.

sys/xen/interface/io/blkif.h:
	o Add extensive documentation of the XenStore nodes used to
	  implement the blkif interface.
	o Document the startup sequence between a front and back driver.
	o Add structures and documenatation for the "discard" feature
	  (AKA Trim).
	o Cleanup some definitions related to FreeBSD's request
	  number/size/segment-limit extension.

sys/dev/xen/blkfront/blkfront.c:
sys/dev/xen/blkback/blkback.c:
sys/xen/xenbus/xenbusvar.h:
	Add the convenience function xenbus_get_otherend_state() and
	use it to simplify some logic in both block-front and block-back.
