Boris Ostrovsky 5fc509bc2b xen/x86: Move irq allocation from Xen smp_op.cpu_up()
Commit ce0d3c0a6f ("genirq: Revert sparse irq locking around
__cpu_up() and move it to x86 for now") reverted irq locking
introduced by commit a899418167 ("hotplug: Prevent alloc/free
of irq descriptors during cpu up/down") because of Xen allocating
irqs in both of its cpu_up ops.

We can move those allocations into CPU notifiers so that original
patch can be reinstated.

Mukesh Rathor a2ef5dc2c7 x86/xen: Set EFER.NX and EFER.SCE in PVH guests
This fixes two bugs in PVH guests:

  - Not setting EFER.NX means the NX bit in page table entries is
    ignored on Intel processors and causes reserved bit page faults on
    AMD processors.

  - After the Xen commit 7645640d6ff1 ("x86/PVH: don't set EFER_SCE for
    pvh guest") PVH guests are required to set EFER.SCE to enable the
    SYSCALL instruction.

Secondary VCPUs are started with pagetables with the NX bit set so
EFER.NX must be set before using any stack or data segment.
xen_pvh_cpu_early_init() is the new secondary VCPU entry point that
sets EFER before jumping to cpu_bringup_and_idle().

Stefan Bader 1db01b4903 xen: Clean up apic ipi interface
Commit f447d56d36 introduced the
implementation of the PV apic ipi interface. But there were some
odd things (it seems none of which cause really any issue but
maybe they should be cleaned up anyway):
 - xen_send_IPI_mask_allbutself (and by that xen_send_IPI_allbutself)
   ignore the passed in vector and only use the CALL_FUNCTION_SINGLE
   vector. While xen_send_IPI_all and xen_send_IPI_mask use the vector.
 - physflat_send_IPI_allbutself is declared unnecessarily. It is never
   used.

This patch tries to clean up those things.
