[PATCH 1/6] x86: Add VMWare Host Communication Macros

From: Sinclair Yeh
Date: Tue Dec 01 2015 - 17:18:03 EST


These macros will be used by multiple VMWare modules for handling
host communication.

v2:
* Keeping only the minimal common platform defines
* added vmware_platform() check function

v3:
* Added new field to handle different hypervisor magic values
