      xen: implement save/restore · 0e91398f

      This patch implements Xen save/restore and migration.
      
      Saving is triggered via xenbus, which is polled in
      drivers/xen/manage.c.  When a suspend request comes in, the kernel
      prepares itself for saving by:
      
      1 - Freeze all processes.  This is primarily to prevent any
          partially-completed pagetable updates from confusing the suspend
          process.  If CONFIG_PREEMPT isn't defined, then this isn't necessary.
      
      2 - Suspend xenbus and other devices
      
      3 - Stop_machine, to make sure all the other vcpus are quiescent.  The
          Xen tools require the domain to run its save off vcpu0.
      
      4 - Within the stop_machine state, it pins any unpinned pgds (under
          construction or destruction), performs canonicalizes various other
          pieces of state (mostly converting mfns to pfns), and finally
      
      5 - Suspend the domain
      
      Restore reverses the steps used to save the domain, ending when all
      the frozen processes are thawed.
