Subject: [RESEND PATCH] xen: vcpu_info would be reset to wrong place on canceled
 suspend on PVOPS VM which has multi-cpu

The hypervisor continues assuming that vcpu_info is stored in per-cpu data which was set up by xen_vcpu_setup(),
while on canceled suspend, the call to xen_hvm_init_shared_info() will now make the guest think that vcpu_info
is in the shared page, so we do not call xen_hvm_init_shared_info() on suspend canceled.
