Commit 72a9b18629 ("xen: Remove event channel notification through Xen
PCI platform device") broke Linux when booting as Dom0 on Xen in a
nested Xen environment (Xen installed inside a Xen VM). In this
scenario, Linux is a PV guest, but at the same time it uses the
platform-pci driver to receive notifications from L0 Xen. vector
callbacks are not available because L1 Xen doesn't allow them.
Partially revert the offending commit, by restoring IRQ based
notifications for PV guests only. I restored only the code which is
strictly needed and replaced the xen_have_vector_callback checks within
it with xen_pv_domain() checks.

Ever since commit 254d1a3f02 ("xen/pv-on-hvm kexec: shutdown watches
from old kernel") using the INTx interrupt from Xen PCI platform
device for event channel notification would just lockup the guest
during bootup. postcore_initcall now calls xs_reset_watches which
will eventually try to read a value from XenStore and will get stuck
on read_reply at XenBus forever since the platform driver is not
probed yet and its INTx interrupt handler is not registered yet. That
means that the guest can not be notified at this moment of any pending
event channels and none of the per-event handlers will ever be invoked
(including the XenStore one) and the reply will never be picked up by
the kernel.
The exact stack where things get stuck during xenbus_init:
-xenbus_init
-xs_init
-xs_reset_watches
-xenbus_scanf
-xenbus_read
-xs_single
-xs_single
-xs_talkv
Vector callbacks have always been the favourite event notification
mechanism since their introduction in commit 38e20b07ef ("x86/xen:
event channels delivery on HVM.") and the vector callback feature has
always been advertised for quite some time by Xen that's why INTx was
broken for several years now without impacting anyone.
Luckily this also means that event channel notification through INTx
is basically dead-code which can be safely removed without impacting
anybody since it has been effectively disabled for more than 4 years
with nobody complaining about it (at least as far as I'm aware of).
This commit removes event channel notification through Xen PCI
platform device.

The Kconfig currently controlling compilation of this code is:
arch/x86/xen/Kconfig:config XEN_PVHVM
arch/x86/xen/Kconfig: def_bool y
...meaning that it currently is not being built as a module by anyone.
Lets remove the modular code that is essentially orphaned, so that
when reading the driver there is no doubt it is builtin-only.
Since module_init translates to device_initcall in the non-modular
case, the init ordering remains unchanged with this commit.
Also note that MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE is a no-op for non-modular code.
We also delete the MODULE_LICENSE tag etc. since all that information
was (or is now) contained at the top of the file in the comments.
In removing "module" from the init fcn name, we observe a namespace
collision with the probe function, so we use "probe" in the name of
the probe function, and "init" in the registration fcn, as per
standard convention, as suggested by Stefano.

The 'xen_hvm_resume_frames' used to be an 'unsigned long'
and contain the virtual address of the grants. That was OK
for most architectures (PVHVM, ARM) were the grants are contiguous
in memory. That however is not the case for PVH - in which case
we will have to do a lookup for each virtual address for the PFN.
Instead of doing that, lets make it a structure which will contain
the array of PFNs, the virtual address and the count of said PFNs.
Also provide a generic functions: gnttab_setup_auto_xlat_frames and
gnttab_free_auto_xlat_frames to populate said structure with
appropriate values for PVHVM and ARM.
To round it off, change the name from 'xen_hvm_resume_frames' to
a more descriptive one - 'xen_auto_xlat_grant_frames'.
For PVH, in patch "xen/pvh: Piggyback on PVHVM for grant driver"
we will populate the 'xen_auto_xlat_grant_frames' by ourselves.
v2 moves the xen_remap in the gnttab_setup_auto_xlat_frames
and also introduces xen_unmap for gnttab_free_auto_xlat_frames.

During shutdown of PVHVM guests with more than 2VCPUs on certain

replaced fast enough and the PV time clock retries reading the same
area over and over without any any success and is stuck in an
infinite loop.

Currently kexec in a PVonHVM guest fails with a triple fault because the
new kernel overwrites the shared info page. The exact failure depends on
the size of the kernel image. This patch moves the pfn from RAM into
MMIO space before the kexec boot.
The pfn containing the shared_info is located somewhere in RAM. This
will cause trouble if the current kernel is doing a kexec boot into a
new kernel. The new kernel (and its startup code) can not know where the
pfn is, so it can not reserve the page. The hypervisor will continue to
update the pfn, and as a result memory corruption occours in the new
kernel.
One way to work around this issue is to allocate a page in the
xen-platform pci device's BAR memory range. But pci init is done very
late and the shared_info page is already in use very early to read the
pvclock. So moving the pfn from RAM to MMIO is racy because some code
paths on other vcpus could access the pfn during the small window when
the old pfn is moved to the new pfn. There is even a small window were
the old pfn is not backed by a mfn, and during that time all reads
return -1.
Because it is not known upfront where the MMIO region is located it can
not be used right from the start in xen_hvm_init_shared_info.
To minimise trouble the move of the pfn is done shortly before kexec.
This does not eliminate the race because all vcpus are still online when
the syscore_ops will be called. But hopefully there is no work pending
at this point in time. Also the syscore_op is run last which reduces the
risk further.

While debugging kexec issues in a PVonHVM guest I modified
xen_hvm_platform() to return false to disable all PV drivers. This
caused a crash in platform_pci_init() because it expects certain data
structures to be initialized properly.
To avoid such a crash make sure the driver is initialized only if
running in a Xen guest.

When xen_emul_unplug=never is specified on kernel command line
reading files from /sys/hypervisor is broken (returns -EBUSY).
It is caused by xen_bus dependency on platform-pci and
platform-pci isn't initialized when xen_emul_unplug=never is
specified.
Fix it by allowing platform-pci to ignore xen_emul_unplug=never,
and do not intialize xen_[blk|net]front instead.

Add the xen pci platform device driver that is responsible
for initializing the grant table and xenbus in PV on HVM mode.
Few changes to xenbus and grant table are necessary to allow the delayed
initialization in HVM mode.
Grant table needs few additional modifications to work in HVM mode.
The Xen PCI platform device raises an irq every time an event has been
delivered to us. However these interrupts are only delivered to vcpu 0.
The Xen PCI platform interrupt handler calls xen_hvm_evtchn_do_upcall
that is a little wrapper around __xen_evtchn_do_upcall, the traditional
Xen upcall handler, the very same used with traditional PV guests.
When running on HVM the event channel upcall is never called while in
progress because it is a normal Linux irq handler (and we cannot switch
the irq chip wholesale to the Xen PV ones as we are running QEMU and
might have passed in PCI devices), therefore we cannot be sure that
evtchn_upcall_pending is 0 when returning.
For this reason if evtchn_upcall_pending is set by Xen we need to loop
again on the event channels set pending otherwise we might loose some
event channel deliveries.
