    xen/common: low performance of lib/sort.c
    
    It is a non-standard heap-sort algorithm implementation because the index
    of child node is wrong .  The sort function still outputs right result, but
    the performance is O( n * ( log(n) + 1 ) ) , about 10% ~ 20% worse than
    standard algorithm.
