[PATCH v4 2/2] x86, arm, platform, xen, kconfig: add xen defconfig helper

[Luis R. Rodriguez]

From: "Luis R. Rodriguez" <mcgrof@suse.com>

This lets you build a kernel which can support xen dom0
or xen guests by just using:

   make xenconfig

on both x86 and arm64 kernels. This also splits out the
options which are available currently to be built with x86
and 'make ARCH=arm64' under a shared config.

Technically xen supports a dom0 kernel and also a guest
kernel configuration but upon review with the xen team
since we don't have many dom0 options its best to just
combine these two into one.

David,

since I'm making some Kconfig changes to Xen I think I should
fold this into that series with the modifications required
last so as to avoid other commits and have this go in clean
after all the changes, and have this go through you with
that.

Thoughts?

  Luis

David,

since I'm making some Kconfig changes to Xen I think I should
fold this into that series with the modifications required
last so as to avoid other commits and have this go in clean
after all the changes, and have this go through you with
that.

Thoughts?

  Luis

Sure, if you're planning on kconfig changes then I agree that this should 
come later, either as part of the same patchset if it logically makes 
sense or just in a follow-up patchset.
