Thread-topic: [PATCH] [VT] clean up VMX builder
This patch clean up VMX builder.

Since now we have vmxloader, old code loading linux kernel directly is
not needed.
1. remove linux parameters.
2. remove init ramdisk.
3. remove e820 memmap config file parse. Also e820 map handling code is
changed in vmx_setup_platform.
4. remove provisional GDT, and construct_init_guest_vmcs is updated
greatly.
5. remove some ugly tailing space.

Thanks Keir for giving us a hint on removing provisional GDT elegantly.
