Subject: [PATCH v2 0/3] paravirt: rebrand paravirt_enabled as paravirt_legacy

There's been confusion both in code and by developers as to what
the paravirt_enabled thing means. This sets to clarify this to help
build stronger semantics on our bootup process.

This was originally suggested by Konrad and I included this as part of
a larger patch set [0]. I've decided to break that single rename patch (1/8)
out into a 3 smaller patches to both make it easier to review and to help
with regression testing, should any issues arise.

Luis R. Rodriguez (3):
  paravirt: use bool for paravirt_enabled() and paravirt_has_feature()
  paravirt: replace direct access to pv_info.paravirt_enabled
  paravirt: rename paravirt_enabled to paravirt_legacy
