  Log:
  SVN rev 216365 on 2010-12-10 22:22:01Z by rwatson
  
  Derive the XENHVM kernel from GENERIC, adding only the options required
  to support PV drivers (such as xenpci), and non-adptive locking (along
  with a comment about why).
  
  This change eliminates the synchronisation problem between GENERIC and
  XENHVM, which had become severely rotted in HEAD, and in 8-STABLE
  included non-production kernel debugging features such as WITNESS.
  
  However, it comes at the cost of enabling devices and options that may
  not be present under Xen (such as random ethernet cards).  For now, opt
  for a simpler kernel configuration file rather than using nooptions/
  nodevice to enumerate and eliminate them.  This leads to a somewhat
  larger XENHVM kernel.
  
  This is an MFC candidate for 8-STABLE before 8.2, in order to provide
  a production-worthy XENHVM kernel configuration for amd64.
