Subject: [GIT PULL] x86/Xen fix for v3.16[-rc8]

Hi Linus,

A single fix to not invoke the espfix code on Xen PV, as it turns out
to oops the guest when invoked after all.  This patch leaves some
amount of dead code, in particular unnecessary initialization of the
espfix stacks when they won't be used, but in the interest of keeping
the patch minimal that cleanup can wait for the next cycle.

The following changes since commit 64aa90f26c06e1cb2aacfb98a7d0eccfbd6c1a91:
