The following refactors the Xen early device tree stuff (i.e. which walks the flattened tree directly) away from the regular device tree stuff (i.e. the stuff which for the most part deals with the unflattened tree). It also makes some changes to the Xen side multiboot support which I think will make it easier to work with, both internally and for e.g. bootloader integration. Impact on UEFI/ACPI: Mostly I think the refactoring may be useful when integrating the UEFI memory map and ACPI stuff (which wants early FDT, but not unflattening etc) in to Xen. Impact on multiboot: This could potentially simplify things on the grub side by removing the need to guess default types for the modules in the common case. In the future I think it would be good to implement more probing on the Xen side, e.g. to discover the XSM policy (similar to how it works on x86 -- which walks all the modules looking for the policy magic nr). Apart from rebasing the main change here is to patch 7 to correct the lack of change to consider_modules which Julien pointed out last time. Ian.
