This change eliminates the synchronisation problem between GENERIC and XENHVM, which had become severely rotted in HEAD, and in 8-STABLE included non-production kernel debugging features such as WITNESS. However, it comes at the cost of enabling devices and options that may not be present under Xen (such as random ethernet cards). For now, opt for a simpler kernel configuration file rather than using nooptions/ nodevice to enumerate and eliminate them. This leads to a somewhat larger XENHVM kernel. This is an MFC candidate for 8-STABLE before 8.2, in order to provide a production-worthy XENHVM kernel configuration for amd64.
