4a19138c65 arm/xen,arm64/xen: introduce p2m
Introduce physical to machine and machine to physical tracking
mechanisms based on rbtrees for arm/xen and arm64/xen.

We need it because any guests on ARM are an autotranslate guests,
therefore a physical address is potentially different from a machine
address. When programming a device to do DMA, we need to be
extra-careful to use machine addresses rather than physical addresses to
program the device. Therefore we need to know the physical to machine
mappings.

For the moment we assume that dom0 starts with a 1:1 physical to machine
mapping, in other words physical addresses correspond to machine
addresses. However when mapping a foreign grant reference, obviously the
1:1 model doesn't work anymore. So at the very least we need to be able
to track grant mappings.

We need locking to protect accesses to the two trees.

Changes in v8:
- move pfn_to_mfn and mfn_to_pfn to page.h as static inline functions;
- no need to walk the tree if phys_to_mach.rb_node is NULL;
- correctly handle multipage p2m entries;
- substitute the spin_lock with a rwlock.

aa2466d21b xen/arm: hypercalls
Use r12 to pass the hypercall number to the hypervisor.

We need a register to pass the hypercall number because we might not
know it at compile time and HVC only takes an immediate argument.

Among the available registers r12 seems to be the best choice because it
is defined as "intra-procedure call scratch register".

Use the ISS to pass an hypervisor specific tag.


Changes in v2:
- define an HYPERCALL macro for 5 arguments hypercall wrappers, even if
at the moment is unused;
- use ldm instead of pop;
- fix up comments.

4c071ee526 arm: initial Xen support
- Basic hypervisor.h and interface.h definitions.
- Skeleton enlighten.c, set xen_start_info to an empty struct.
- Make xen_initial_domain dependent on the SIF_PRIVILIGED_BIT.

The new code only compiles when CONFIG_XEN is set, that is going to be
added to arch/arm/Kconfig in patch #11 "xen/arm: introduce CONFIG_XEN on
ARM".

Changes in v3:

- improve comments.
