xen/arm: vgic: Optimize the way to store GICD_IPRIORITYR in the rank
Xen is currently directly storing the value of GICD_IPRIORITYR register
in the rank. This makes emulation of the register access very simple
but makes the code to get the priority for a given vIRQ more complex.
While the priority of an vIRQ is retrieved every time an vIRQ is injected
to the guest, the access to register occurs less often.
Each GICD_IPRIORITYR register stores 4 priorities associated for 4 vIRQs
(see 4.3.11 in IHI 0048B). As Xen is using little endian, we can use
an union to access directly a register or a priority for a given IRQ.
Note that the field "ipriority" has been renamed to "ipriorityr" to
match the name of the register in the GIC spec.
Finally, the implementation of the callback get_irq_priority is exactly
the same for both vGIC drivers. Consolidate the implementation in the
common vGIC code and drop the callback.

needed by later changes that will also use xc_dom_image in order to build
HVM guests.

tools/hotplug: Scan xenstore once when attaching shared images files
During the attachment of a loopback mounted image file, the mode of all
curent instances of this device already attached to other domains must be
checked. This requires finding all loopback devices pointing to the inode
of the shared image file, and then comparing the major and minor number of
these devices to the major and minor number of every vbd device found in the
xenstore database.
Prior to this patch, the entire xenstore database is walked for every instance
of every loopback device pointing to the same shared image file. This process
causes the block attachment process to becomes exponentially slower with every
additional attachment of a shared image.
Rather than scanning all of xenstore for every instance of a shared loopback
device, this patch creates a list of the major and minor numbers from all
matching loopback devices. After generating this list, Xenstore is walked
once, and major and minor numbers from every vbd are checked against the list.
If a match is found, the mode of that vbd is checked for compatibility with
the mode of the device being attached.
