[PATCH] paravirt: Add startup infrastructure for paravirtualization
1) Each hypervisor writes a probe function to detect whether we are
running under that hypervisor. paravirt_probe() registers this
function.
2) If vmlinux is booted with ring != 0, we call all the probe
functions (with registers except %esp intact) in link order: the
winner will not return.
