Move for_each_set_bit from asm-x86/bitops.h to xen/bitops.h.
Replace #include <asm/bitops.h> with #include <xen/bitops.h> everywhere.

... noticed while putting together the 16Tb support patches for x86.
Briefly, this (in order of the changes below)
- fixes an inefficiency in x86's context switch code (translations to/
from struct page are more involved than to/from MFNs)
- drop unnecessary MFM-to-page conversions
- drop a redundant call to destroy_xen_mappings() (an indentical call
is being made a few lines up)
- simplify a VA-to-MFN translation
- drop dead code (several occurrences)
- add a missing __init annotation

Largely as a result of the continuing resistance of Linux maintainers
to accept a microcode loading patch for pv-ops Xen kernels, this
follows the suggested route and provides a means to load microcode
updates without the assistance of Dom0, thus also addressing eventual
problems in the hardware much earlier.
This leverages the fact that via the multiboot protocol another blob
of data can be easily added in the form of just an extra module. Since
microcode data cannot reliably be recognized by looking at the
provided data, this requires (in the non-EFI case) the use of a
command line parameter ("ucode=<number>") to identify which of the
modules is to be parsed for an eventual microcode update (in the EFI
case the module is being identified in the config file, and hence the
command line argument, if given, will be ignored).
This required to adjust the XSM module determination logic accordingly.
The format of the data to be provided is the raw binary blob already
used for AMD CPUs, and the output of the intel-microcode2ucode utility
for the Intel case (either the per-(family,model,stepping) file or -
to make things easier for distro-s integration-wise - simply the
concatenation of all of them).
In order to not convert the spin_lock() in microcode_update_cpu() (and
then obviously also all other uses on microcode_mutex) to
spin_lock_irqsave() (which would be undesirable for the hypercall
context in which the function also runs), the boot time handling gets
done using a tasklet (instead of using on_selected_cpus()).

By doing so, we're no longer restricted to be able to place all boot
loader modules into the low 1Gb/4Gb (32-/64-bit) of memory, nor is
there a dependency anymore on where the boot loader places the
modules.
We're also no longer restricted to copy the modules into a place below
4Gb, nor to put them all together into a single piece of memory.
Further it allows even the 32-bit Dom0 kernel to be loaded anywhere in
physical memory (except if it doesn't support PAE-above-4G).
