How's this. There may be other users, but they're not easy to grep for.

There is now more than one place where we use the fact that bit 9 of
eflags is the interrupt-enabled flag, so define EFLAGS_IF. We make it
512 so it can be used in asm, too.

Because of legacy-induced blindness, I insisted on separately building
the hypervisor.S switcher code (which is mapped at 0xFFC in host
and guest). However, the lguest64 patches showed the error of my
ways: it has no relocations, so it can be linked into the module like
normal then remapped.
Thanks to Andrew for pointing these out.
This patch moves the parvirtprobe section into .init.data: it's only
used in very very early boot, and for similar reasons, puts
lguest_maybe_init and lguest_memory_setup in init.text.
As well as fixing some warnings, this frees up a tiny bit more memory.
Grrr Andi refused to take my "rdmsr64" patch which moved to a
function-like interface for MSRs, dismissing it as pointless churn.
paravirt_ops cleanups changed a macro to an inline and spotted this
kvm bug.

paravirt.c used to implement native versions of all low-level

headers and as inline native_XXX, and if !CONFIG_PARAVIRT, then simply
#define XXX native_XXX.
