x86 vmx: Unrestricted guest (realmode) support
It allows fully virtualized guests to run real mode and unpaged mode
code natively in the VMX mode when EPT is turned on. With the
unrestricted guest there is no need to emulate the guest real mode
code in the vm86 container or in the emulator. Also the guest big real
mode code works like native.
This patch enhances Xen to use the unrestricted guest feature if
available on the processor. It also adds a new xen parameter to
disable the unrestricted guest feature at the boot time.
