[PATCH 1/3] [not-for-unstable] xen/arm: vgic-v3: Delay the initialization of the domain information

[Julien Grall <julien.grall@arm.com>]

A follow-up patch will require to know the number of vCPUs when
initializating the vGICv3 domain structure. However this information is
not available at domain creation. This is only known once
XEN_DOMCTL_max_vpus is called for that domain.

In order to get the max vCPUs around, delay the domain part of the vGIC
v3 initialization until the first vCPU of the domain is initialized.

This is nasty but I can't find a better way for Xen 4.11 and older. This
is not necessary for unstable as the number of vCPUs is known at domain
creation.

Andrew, I have CCed you to know whether you have a better idea where to
place this call on Xen 4.11 and older.
