Subject: [PATCH 2/2] KVM: xen: (re-)initialize shared_info if guest (32/64-bit) mode is set

From: Paul Durrant <pdurrant@...zon.com>

If the shared_info PFN cache has already been initialized then the content
of the shared_info page needs to be (re-)initialized if the guest mode is
set. It is no lnger done when the PFN cache is activated.
Setting the guest mode is either done explicitly by the VMM via the
KVM_XEN_ATTR_TYPE_LONG_MODE attribute, or implicitly when the guest writes
the MSR to set up the hypercall page.
