Hi,

pipeline (green): 
https://gitlab.com/xen-project/people/agvallejo/xen/-/pipelines/2324325987

hvm_enabled is already a constant in PV-only builds. Patch 1 makes it so it's
also a constant in HVM-only builds (with a compile-time panic if HVM support
is lacking in HW). Patch 2 makes it so HVM-only shadowless builds mandate HAP
at boot, thus const-ifying hap_enabled() too and removing that pesky shadow/
folder.

Cheers,
Alejandro

Alejandro Vallejo (2):
  x86: Make hvm_enabled a constant unless both PV and HVM are both
    compiled
  x86: Force HAP to be enabled when PV and shadow paging are compiled
    out
