7e77506a59 xen: implement XENMEM_machphys_mapping
This hypercall allows Xen to specify a non-default location for the
machine to physical mapping. This capability is used when running a 32
bit domain 0 on a 64 bit hypervisor to shrink the hypervisor hole to
exactly the size required.

[ Impact: add Xen hypercall definitions ]

35ae11fd14 xen: Use host-provided E820 map
Rather than simply using a flat memory map from Xen, use its provided
E820 map.  This allows the domain builder to tell the domain to reserve
space for more pages than those initially provided at domain-build time.

It also allows the host to specify holes in the address space (for
PCI-passthrough, for example).

08bbc9da92 xen: Add xen_create_contiguous_region
A memory region must be physically contiguous in order to be accessed
through DMA.  This patch adds xen_create_contiguous_region, which
ensures a region of contiguous virtual memory is also physically
contiguous.

Based on Stephen Tweedie's port of the 2.6.18-xen version.

Remove contiguous_bitmap[] as it's no longer needed.

Ported from linux-2.6.18-xen.hg 707:e410857fd83c

[ Impact: add Xen-internal API to make pages phys-contig ]

19001c8c5b xen: Rename the balloon lock
* xen_create_contiguous_region needs access to the balloon lock to
  ensure memory doesn't change under its feet, so expose the balloon
  lock
* Change the name of the lock to xen_reservation_lock, to imply it's
  now less-specific usage.

[ Impact: cleanup ]

bfdab126cf xen: add missing definitions in include/xen/interface/memory.h which ia64/xen needs
Add xen handles realted definitions for xen memory which ia64/xen needs.
Pointer argumsnts for ia64/xen hypercall are passed in pseudo physical
address (guest physical address) so that it is required to convert
guest kernel virtual address into pseudo physical address.
The xen guest handle represents such arguments.

1775826cee xen: add balloon driver
The balloon driver allows memory to be dynamically added or removed from the domain,
in order to allow host memory to be balanced between multiple domains.

This patch introduces the Xen balloon driver, though it currently only
allows a domain to be shrunk from its initial size (and re-grown back to
that size).  A later patch will add the ability to grow a domain beyond
its initial size.

a42089dd35 xen: Add Xen interface header files
Add Xen interface header files. These are taken fairly directly from
the Xen tree, but somewhat rearranged to suit the kernel's conventions.

Define macros and inline functions for doing hypercalls into the
hypervisor.
