Here's a rough patch to see what it looks like from an lguest POV.  It's
an improvement in many ways: I chose to hardcode the search for matching
backend rather than use paravirt_probe-style magic.

It'd be nicer if there were a "struct boot_params" declaration, but we
can't have everything.

Cheers,
Rusty.
