      xen/pvhvm: Remove the xen_platform_pci int. · 6f6c15ef

      Since we have  xen_has_pv_devices,xen_has_pv_disk_devices,
      xen_has_pv_nic_devices, and xen_has_pv_and_legacy_disk_devices
      to figure out the different 'unplug' behaviors - lets
      use those instead of this single int.

      xen/pvhvm: If xen_platform_pci=0 is set don't blow up (v4). · 51c71a3b

      The user has the option of disabling the platform driver:
      00:02.0 Unassigned class [ff80]: XenSource, Inc. Xen Platform Device (rev 01)
      
      which is used to unplug the emulated drivers (IDE, Realtek 8169, etc)
      and allow the PV drivers to take over. If the user wishes
      to disable that they can set:
      
        xen_platform_pci=0
        (in the guest config file)
      
      or
        xen_emul_unplug=never
        (on the Linux command line)
      
      except it does not work properly. The PV drivers still try to
      load and since the Xen platform driver is not run - and it
      has not initialized the grant tables, most of the PV drivers
      stumble upon:
      
      input: Xen Virtual Keyboard as /devices/virtual/input/input5
      input: Xen Virtual Pointer as /devices/virtual/input/input6M

      which is hardly nice. This patch fixes this by having each
      PV driver check for:
       - if running in PV, then it is fine to execute (as that is their
         native environment).
       - if running in HVM, check if user wanted 'xen_emul_unplug=never',
         in which case bail out and don't load any PV drivers.
       - if running in HVM, and if PCI device 5853:0001 (xen_platform_pci)
         does not exist, then bail out and not load PV drivers.
       - (v2) if running in HVM, and if the user wanted 'xen_emul_unplug=ide-disks',
         then bail out for all PV devices _except_ the block one.
         Ditto for the network one ('nics').
       - (v2) if running in HVM, and if the user wanted 'xen_emul_unplug=unnecessary'
         then load block PV driver, and also setup the legacy IDE paths.
         In (v3) make it actually load PV drivers.
