commit 73f18583dd824f0e49f65149ef603600ce31b8ee Author: Ian Campbell <ian.campbell@xxxxxxxxxx> AuthorDate: Mon Jul 22 19:17:20 2013 +0100 Commit: Ian Campbell <ian.campbell@xxxxxxxxxx> CommitDate: Thu Aug 8 16:24:39 2013 +0100 xen: arm: document which hypercalls (and subops) are supported on ARM There are many hypercalls which make no sense or which are not supported on ARM systems but it's not all that obvious which ones we do support. So lets try and document the hypercalls which are useful on ARM. I'm not sure this is the best way to go about this, I'm open to other ideas.
