[PATCH v3 0/4] x86/PVHv2: Add memory map pointer to hvm_start_info struct

[Maran Wilson <maran.wilson@oracle.com>]

Here is the patch series for updating the canonical definition of the
hvm_start_info struct corresponding to the discussion happening on the
linux-kernel and kvm mailing lists regarding Qemu/KVM use of the PVH
entry point:

   KVM: x86: Allow Qemu/KVM to use PVH entry point
   https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/2/28/1121

Patch 1 contains all the changes to the hvm_start_info struct and
patches 2-4 modify Xen to use the new memory map fields of the structure.

Changes since v2:
 * Better definition of the memory map types including addition of new
   symbols and tightening up the comments as suggested.
 * Added a couple of BUILD_BUG_ON() statements to the c code in patch #4
   to document and verify the relationship between these memory types
   and e820 types.

Changes since v1:
 * Made updates to code comments as suggested by Jan and Roger, including
   better definition of the memory map type field.   
 * Boris provided additional patches to populate the new fields in the
   hvm_start_info struct as Jan (and later Roger also) had requested.


Boris Ostrovsky (3):
  libxl: Move libxl__arch_domain_construct_memmap() earlier
  libxl: Store PVH guest's e820 map in xc_dom_image
  libxc: Pass e820 map to PVH guest via hvm_start_info
