Kbuild test robot reports the following problem on ARM:
for 'xen_setup_callback_vector' [-Wmissing-prototypes]
1664 | void xen_setup_callback_vector(void) {}
| ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The problem is that xen_setup_callback_vector is a x86 only thing, its
definition is present in arch/x86/xen/xen-ops.h but not on ARM. In
events_base.c there is a stub for !CONFIG_XEN_PVHVM but it is not declared
as 'static'.
On x86 the situation is hardly better: drivers/xen/events/events_base.c
doesn't include 'xen-ops.h' from arch/x86/xen/, it includes its namesake
from include/xen/ which also results in a 'no previous prototype' warning.
Currently, xen_setup_callback_vector() has two call sites: one in
drivers/xen/events_base.c and another in arch/x86/xen/suspend_hvm.c. The
former is placed under #ifdef CONFIG_X86 and the later is only compiled
in when CONFIG_XEN_PVHVM.
Resolve the issue by moving xen_setup_callback_vector() declaration to
arch neutral 'include/xen/hvm.h' as the implementation lives in arch
neutral drivers/xen/events/events_base.c.

The start info structure that is defined as part of the x86/HVM direct boot
ABI and used for starting Xen PVH guests would be more versatile if it also
included a way to pass information about the memory map to the guest. This
would allow KVM guests to share the same entry point.

Recently a new dm_op[1] hypercall was added to Xen to provide a mechanism
for restricting device emulators (such as QEMU) to a limited set of
hypervisor operations, and being able to audit those operations in the
kernel of the domain in which they run.
This patch adds IOCTL_PRIVCMD_DM_OP as gateway for __HYPERVISOR_dm_op.
NOTE: There is no requirement for user-space code to bounce data through
locked memory buffers (as with IOCTL_PRIVCMD_HYPERCALL) since
privcmd has enough information to lock the original buffers
directly.

HVM_PARAM_CALLBACK_IRQ
This new delivery type which is for ARM shares the same value with
HVM_PARAM_CALLBACK_TYPE_VECTOR which is for x86.
val[15:8] is flag: val[7:0] is a PPI.
To the flag, bit 8 stands the interrupt mode is edge(1) or level(0) and
bit 9 stands the interrupt polarity is active low(1) or high(0).

Pull Xen fixes from Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk:
"This has four bug-fixes and one tiny feature that I forgot to put
initially in my tree due to oversight.
The feature is for kdump kernels to speed up the /proc/vmcore reading.
There is a ram_is_pfn helper function that the different platforms can
register for. We are now doing that.
The bug-fixes cover some embarrassing struct pv_cpu_ops variables
being set to NULL on Xen (but not baremetal). We had a similar issue
in the past with {write|read}_msr_safe and this fills the three
missing ones. The other bug-fix is to make the console output (hvc)
be capable of dealing with misbehaving backends and not fall flat on
its face. Lastly, a quirk for older XenBus implementations that came
with an ancient v3.4 hypervisor (so RHEL5 based) - reading of certain
non-existent attributes just hangs the guest during bootup - so we
take precaution of not doing that on such older installations.
Feature:
- Register a pfn_is_ram helper to speed up reading of /proc/vmcore.
Bug-fixes:
- Three pvops call for Xen were undefined causing BUG_ONs.
- Add a quirk so that the shutdown watches (used by kdump) are not
used with older Xen (3.4).
- Fix ungraceful state transition for the HVC console."
* tag 'stable/for-linus-3.7-rc0-tag' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/konrad/xen:
xen/pv-on-hvm kexec: add quirk for Xen 3.4 and shutdown watches.
xen/bootup: allow {read|write}_cr8 pvops call.
xen/bootup: allow read_tscp call for Xen PV guests.
xen pv-on-hvm: add pfn_is_ram helper for kdump
xen/hvc: handle backend CLOSED without CLOSING

Register pfn_is_ram helper speed up reading /proc/vmcore in the kdump
kernel. See commit message of 997c136f518c ("fs/proc/vmcore.c: add hook
to read_from_oldmem() to check for non-ram pages") for details.
It makes use of a new hvmop HVMOP_get_mem_type which was introduced in
xen 4.2 (23298:26413986e6e0) and backported to 4.1.1.
The new function is currently only enabled for reading /proc/vmcore.
Later it will be used also for the kexec kernel. Since that requires
more changes in the generic kernel make it static for the time being.
