[Xen-devel] [PATCH 47/52] xen: add basic support for runtime parameter changing

[Juergen Gross <jgross@xxxxxxxx>]

Add the needed infrastructure for runtime parameter changing similar
to that used at boot time via cmdline. We are using the same parsing
functions as for cmdline parsing, but with a different array of
parameter definitions.
