The title is missing the 'xen' part.

I rewrote it a bit and I think this should go in 3.14.

David, Boris: It is not the full fix as there are other parts to
make an PVH guest use 2MB or 1GB pages- but this fixes an obvious
bug.

Subject: [PATCH] xen/pvh: set CR4 flags for APs

The Xen ABI sets said flags for the BSP, but it does
not do that for the CR4. As such fix it up to make
sure we have that flag set.
