kernel use callback linked in panic_notifier_list to notice others when panic
happens.
NORET_TYPE void panic(const char * fmt, ...){
...
atomic_notifier_call_chain(&panic_notifier_list, 0, buf);
}
When xen aware this, it will call xen_reboot(SHUTDOWN_crash) to send out an
event with reason code - SHUTDOWN_crash.
xen_panic_handler_init() is defined to register on panic_notifier_list but
we only call it in xen_arch_setup which only be called by pvm, this patch is
necessary for pvhvm.

Setting 'on_crash=coredump-restart' in PVHVM guest config file can't
lead a vmcore to be generate when the guest panics. It can be reproduced
with 'echo c > /proc/sysrq-trigger'.
>From the xend.log, we find the reason code gotten by dominfo is not as

[2013-07-29 08:55:37 19378] INFO (XendDomainInfo:2148) Domain has
shutdown: name=oakDom1 id=15 reason=reboot.
While log from a guest who can capture the crash is as below:
[2013-07-29 08:13:42 19378] WARNING (XendDomainInfo:2131) Domain has
crashed: name=oakDom1 id=14.

lead a vmcore to be generate when the guest panics. It can be reproduced
with 'echo c > /proc/sysrq-trigger'.
From the xend.log, we find the reason code gotten by dominfo is not as
expected:
[2013-07-29 08:55:37 19378] INFO (XendDomainInfo:2148) Domain has
shutdown: name=oakDom1 id=15 reason=reboot.
While log from a guest who can capture the crash is as below:
[2013-07-29 08:13:42 19378] WARNING (XendDomainInfo:2131) Domain has
crashed: name=oakDom1 id=14.

Without this patch, Xen would not get pvhvm crash event, any config for
on_crash in guest configure file will not be triggered.
