a6bd8e1303 lguest: comment documentation update.
Took some cycles to re-read the Lguest Journey end-to-end, fix some
rot and tighten some phrases.

Only comments change.  No new jokes, but a couple of recycled old jokes.

15045275c3 Remove old lguest I/O infrrasructure.
This patch gets rid of the old lguest host I/O infrastructure and
replaces it with a single hypercall "LHCALL_NOTIFY" which takes an
address.

The main change is the removal of io.c: that mainly did inter-guest
I/O, which virtio doesn't yet support.

47436aa4ad Boot with virtual == physical to get closer to native Linux.
1) This allows us to get alot closer to booting bzImages.

2) It means we don't have to know page_offset.

3) The Guest needs to modify the boot pagetables to create the
   PAGE_OFFSET mapping before jumping to C code.

4) guest_pa() walks the page tables rather than using page_offset.

5) We don't use page_offset to figure out whether to emulate: it was
   always kinda quesationable, and won't work for instructions done
   before remapping (bzImage unpacking in particular).

6) We still want the kernel address for tlb flushing: have the initial
   hypercall give us that, too.

b410e7b149 Make hypercalls arch-independent.
Clean up the hypercall code to make the code in hypercalls.c
architecture independent. First process the common hypercalls and
then call lguest_arch_do_hcall() if the call hasn't been handled.
Rename struct hcall_ring to hcall_args.

This patch requires the previous patch which reorganize the layout of
struct lguest_regs on i386 so they match the layout of struct
hcall_args.

c37ae93d59 Move lguest hcalls to arch-specific header
Move architecture specific portion of lg_hcall code to asm-i386/lg_hcall.h
and have it included from linux/lguest.h.

[Changed to asm-i386/lguest_hcall.h so documentation finds it -RR]
