[PATCH v5 4/4] x86/xen: Add "nopv" support for HVM guest

From: Zhenzhong Duan
Date: Wed Jul 03 2019 - 21:17:07 EST


PVH guest needs PV extentions to work, so "nopv" parameter should be
ignored for PVH but not for HVM guest.

If PVH guest boots up via the Xen-PVH boot entry, xen_pvh is set early,
we know it's PVH guest and ignore "nopv" parameter directly.

If PVH guest boots up via the normal boot entry same as HVM guest, it's
hard to distinguish PVH and HVM guest at that time.

To handle that case, add a new function xen_hvm_nopv_guest_late_init()
to detect PVH at a late time and panic itself if nopv enabled for a
PVH guest.
