A annoy thing in pv drivers is that it would test if the domain type is _NOT_
XEN_NATIVE. So set the domain to XEN_HVM_DOMAIN would result in PV driver
initialization then probably panic. Maybe we can do something to PV drivers,
as patch 6 and a part of patch 7.

Yes, that's better.

Part of pv_ops are overlapped. I would try if a new file would bring much
duplicate.

OK. (In fact I merged them in second edition...)

I think we need a aligned page, as hypercall page.

Something may need to change in pv driver, as I said above.
