Mukesh Rathor ddc416cbc4 xen/pvh/x86: Define what an PVH guest is (v3).
Which is a PV guest with auto page translation enabled
and with vector callback. It is a cross between PVHVM and PV.

The Xen side defines PVH as (from docs/misc/pvh-readme.txt,
with modifications):

"* the guest uses auto translate:
 - p2m is managed by Xen
 - pagetables are owned by the guest
 - mmu_update hypercall not available
* it uses event callback and not vlapic emulation,
* IDT is native, so set_trap_table hcall is also N/A for a PVH guest.

For a full list of hcalls supported for PVH, see pvh_hypercall64_table
in arch/x86/hvm/hvm.c in xen.  From the ABI prespective, it's mostly a
PV guest with auto translate, although it does use hvm_op for setting
callback vector."

Also we use the PV cpuid, albeit we can use the HVM (native) cpuid.
However, we do have a fair bit of filtering in the xen_cpuid and
we can piggyback on that until the hypervisor/toolstack filters
the appropiate cpuids. Once that is done we can swap over to
use the native one.

We setup a Kconfig entry that is disabled by default and
cannot be enabled.

Note that on ARM the concept of PVH is non-existent. As Ian
put it: "an ARM guest is neither PV nor HVM nor PVHVM.
It's a bit like PVH but is different also (it's further towards
the H end of the spectrum than even PVH).". As such these
options (PVHVM, PVH) are never enabled nor seen on ARM
compilations.
