[PATCH v2] xen: HVM X2APIC support

From: Sheng Yang
Date: Mon Dec 06 2010 - 02:47:32 EST


This patch is similiar to Gleb Natapov's patch for KVM, which enable the
hypervisor to emulate x2apic feature for the guest. By this way, the emulation
of lapic would be simpler with x2apic interface(MSR), and faster.
