Thomas Gleixner 2f6474e463 x86/entry: Switch XEN/PV hypercall entry to IDTENTRY
Convert the XEN/PV hypercall to IDTENTRY:

  - Emit the ASM stub with DECLARE_IDTENTRY
  - Remove the ASM idtentry in 64-bit
  - Remove the open coded ASM entry code in 32-bit
  - Remove the old prototypes

The handler stubs need to stay in ASM code as they need corner case handling
and adjustment of the stack pointer.

Provide a new C function which invokes the entry/exit handling and calls
into the XEN handler on the interrupt stack if required.

The exit code is slightly different from the regular idtentry_exit() on
non-preemptible kernels. If the hypercall is preemptible and need_resched()
is set then XEN provides a preempt hypercall scheduling function.

Move this functionality into the entry code so it can use the existing
idtentry functionality.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
