[v4,09/13] KVM: xen: automatically use the vcpu_info embedded in shared_info
Commit Message
From: Paul Durrant <pdurrant@amazon.com>
The VMM should only need to set the KVM_XEN_VCPU_ATTR_TYPE_VCPU_INFO
attribute in response to a VCPUOP_register_vcpu_info hypercall. We can
handle the default case internally since we already know where the
shared_info page is. Modify get_vcpu_info_cache() to pass back a pointer
to the shared info pfn cache (and appropriate offset) for any of the
first 32 vCPUs if the attribute has not been set.
A VMM will be able to determine whether it needs to set up default
vcpu_info using the previously defined KVM_XEN_HVM_CONFIG_SHARED_INFO_HVA
Xen capability flag, which will be advertized in a subsequent patch.
If the VMM subsequently sets a vcpu_info in response to the aforementioned
hypercall then the content of the default vcpu_info will be copied to the
new location.
Also update the KVM API documentation to describe the new behaviour.

v4:
- Copy the default vcpu_info content when an explicit vcpu_info is set.
- Amend API documentation.
v3:
- Add a note to the API documentation discussing vcpu_info copying.
v2:
- Dispense with the KVM_XEN_HVM_CONFIG_DEFAULT_VCPU_INFO capability.
- Add API documentation.

AFAICT we can just delete the whole bloody lot. But yes, it's
definitely a later cleanup, enabled by the fact that we (will) now have
an agreed way of taking both locks at once, which I didn't want to do
in the first place.

Sets the guest physical frame number at which the Xen shared_info
