These patches need rebasing to changeset 10948 or after. The changes I made
there should make your patchset rather smaller!

The main thing is to get rid of your additions to hvm_info_table:
 1. Uuid can be got via hypercall_xen_version(XENVER_guest_handle)
 2. Version info can be got via other XENVER_ commands
 3. Memsize can roughly be worked out from the e820 table

I see you add a util.c -- I actually also made the same cleanup in my
changeset although I think you add another couple of functions.

Hopefully the way to use the hypercalls is obvious from the above changeset.
I added a simple example to hvmloader.c:init_hypercalls() to print version
information.

 Thanks,
 Keir
