Subject: [PATCH WIP 2/6] xen/arm: Introduce xen_guest_init

We used to rely on a core_initcall to initialize Xen on ARM, however
core_initcalls are actually called after early consoles are initialized.
That means that hvc_xen.c is going to be initialized before Xen.

Given the lack of a better alternative, just call a new Xen
initialization function (xen_guest_init) from xen_cons_init.

xen_guest_init has to be arch independant, so write both an ARM and an
x86 implementation. The x86 implementation is currently empty because we
can be sure that xen_hvm_guest_init is called early enough.

Probably we can get rid of this as soon as we have better DT support.
