Add the hypercall sub-ops and the structures for the shared data used
in the FIFO-based event channel ABI.
The design document for this new ABI is available here:
http://xenbits.xen.org/people/dvrabel/event-channels-H.pdf
In summary, events are reported using a per-domain shared event array
of event words. Each event word has PENDING, LINKED and MASKED bits
and a LINK field for pointing to the next event in the event queue.
There are 16 event queues (with different priorities) per-VCPU.
Key advantages of this new ABI include:
- Support for over 100,000 events (2^17).
- 16 different event priorities.
- Improved fairness in event latency through the use of FIFOs.
The ABI is available in Xen 4.4 and later.

Remove the check during unbind for NR_EVENT_CHANNELS as this limits
support to less than 4096 ports.

Refactor static array evtchn_to_irq array to be dynamically allocated by
implementing get and set functions for accesses to the array.
Two new port ops are added: max_channels (maximum supported number of
event channels) and nr_channels (number of currently usable event
channels). For the 2-level ABI, these numbers are both the same as
the shared data structure is a fixed size. For the FIFO ABI, these
will be different as the event array is expanded dynamically.
This allows more than 65000 event channels so an unsigned short is no
longer sufficient for an event channel port number and unsigned int is
used instead.

Add a hook for port-specific setup and call it from
xen_irq_info_common_setup().
The FIFO-based ABIs may need to perform additional setup (expanding
the event array) before a bound event channel can start to receive
events.

The FIFO-based event ABI requires additional setup of newly bound
events (it may need to expand the event array) and this setup may
fail.
xen_irq_info_common_init() is a useful place to put this setup so
allow this call to fail. This call and the other similar calls are
renamed to be *_setup() to reflect that they may now fail.
This failure can only occur with new event channels not on rebind.

evtchn_ops contains the low-level operations that access the shared
data structures. This allows alternate ABIs to be supported.

In preparation for alternative event channel ABIs, move all the
functions accessing the shared data structures into their own file.

events.c will be split into multiple files so move it into its own
