The primary console is special because the toolstack maps a page into
the guest for its ring, and also allocates the guest-side event channel.
The guest's grant table is even primed to export that page using a known
grant ref#. Add support for all that in emulated mode, so that we can
have a primary console.
For reasons unclear, the backends running under real Xen don't just use
a mapping of the well-known GNTTAB_RESERVED_CONSOLE grant ref (which
would also be in the ring-ref node in XenStore). Instead, the toolstack
sets the ring-ref node of the primary console to the GFN of the guest
page. The backend is expected to handle that special case and map it
with foreignmem operations instead.
We don't have an implementation of foreignmem ops for emulated Xen mode,
so just make it map GNTTAB_RESERVED_CONSOLE instead. This would probably
work for real Xen too, but we can't work out how to make real Xen create
a primary console of type "ioemu" to make QEMU drive it, so we can't
test that; might as well leave it as it is for now under Xen.
Now at last we can boot the Xen PV shim and run PV kernels in QEMU.

The way that Xen handles MSI PIRQs is kind of awful.
There is a special MSI message which targets a PIRQ. The vector in the
low bits of data must be zero. The low 8 bits of the PIRQ# are in the
destination ID field, the extended destination ID field is unused, and
instead the high bits of the PIRQ# are in the high 32 bits of the address.
Using the high bits of the address means that we can't intercept and
translate these messages in kvm_send_msi(), because they won't be caught
by the APIC — addresses like 0x1000fee46000 aren't in the APIC's range.
So we catch them in pci_msi_trigger() instead, and deliver the event
channel directly.
That isn't even the worst part. The worst part is that Xen snoops on
writes to devices' MSI vectors while they are *masked*. When a MSI
message is written which looks like it targets a PIRQ, it remembers
the device and vector for later.
When the guest makes a hypercall to bind that PIRQ# (snooped from a
marked MSI vector) to an event channel port, Xen *unmasks* that MSI
vector on the device. Xen guests using PIRQ delivery of MSI don't
ever actually unmask the MSI for themselves.
Now that this is working we can finally enable XENFEAT_hvm_pirqs and
let the guest use it all.
Tested with passthrough igb and emulated e1000e + AHCI.
