xen/pvh: Piggyback on PVHVM for event channels (v2)
PVH is a PV guest with a twist - there are certain things that work in it like HVM and some like PV. There is a similar mode - PVHVM where we run in HVM mode with PV code enabled - and this patch explores that. The most notable PV interfaces are the XenBus and event channels. We will piggyback on how the event channel mechanism is used in PVHVM - that is we want the normal native IRQ mechanism and we will install a vector (hvm callback) for which we will call the event channel mechanism. This means that from a pvops perspective, we can use native_irq_ops instead of the Xen PV specific. Albeit in the future we could support pirq_eoi_map. But that is a feature request that can be shared with PVHVM.
