[PATCH v10] claim and its friends for allocating multiple self-ballooning guests.

[Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk <konrad.wilk@oracle.com>]

Hey,

Two of these patches (Dan's) have been posted in the past, but I took it upon
myself to expand them and address some of the concerns and also continue the
discussion around them. I believe most people have been roped in the email
conversation about this and know what these patches are for. The first patch
(mmu: Introduce XENMEM_claim_pages (subop of memory ops) has a good blurb
about the problem/solution/alternative solutions.

The patches follow the normal code-flow - the patch to implement the two hypercalls:
XENMEM_claim_pages and XENMEM_get_unclaimed_pages.

Then the patches to utilize them in the libxc. The hypercall's are only utilized
if the toolstack (libxl) sets the claim_mode to anything but zero.

Then the toolstack (libxl + xl) patches. They revolve around two different changes:
 1). Add 'claim_mode=[off|on|tmem]' global configuration value that determines
     whether the claim hypercall should be used as part of guest creation.
 2). Add an extra parameter -c to the 'xl info' to provide the output of how many
     pages are claimed by different guests. This is more of a diagnostic patch.

That is it.

Dan Magenheimer (3):
      mmu: Introduce XENMEM_claim_pages (subop of memory ops).
      xc: use XENMEM_claim_pages during guest creation.
      xc: XENMEM_claim_pages claimed but not possesed value.

Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk (3):
      xl: Implement XENMEM_claim_pages support via 'claim_mode' global config
      xl: export 'unclaimed_pages' value from xcinfo
      xl: 'xl list' supports '-c' for global claim information.
