Juergen Gross 3fac3734c4 xen/pv: support selecting safe/unsafe msr accesses
Instead of always doing the safe variants for reading and writing MSRs
in Xen PV guests, make the behavior controllable via Kconfig option
and a boot parameter.

The default will be the current behavior, which is to always use the
safe variant.

Limit paravirtualized user domains to 512GB of RAM.
The Xen tools and crash dump analysis tools might not support
pv-domains with more than 512 GB of RAM. This option controls the
default setting of the kernel to use only up to 512 GB or more.
It is always possible to change the default via specifying the
boot parameter "xen_512gb_limit".
