To begin moving toward allowing the hypervisor to construct more than one
domain at boot, a container is needed for a domain's build information.
Introduce a new header, <xen/asm/bootdomain.h>, that contains the initial
struct boot_domain that encapsulate the build information for a domain.
Add a kernel and ramdisk boot module reference along with a struct domain
reference to the new struct boot_domain. This allows a struct boot_domain
reference to be the only parameter necessary to pass down through the domain
construction call chain.

I have to object because the meaningless rename is going cause
significant pain in the rebase of the follow-on series for no improved
code clarity.
Sorry, then an incremental patch undoing the rename that happened (with
appropriate justification) will need proposing - the patch here has gone
in already.
Coming from a Linux background, ramdisk seemed more natural to me. But
looking at hvm_start_info, the fields are called module there. And
since we shouldn't tie this to the Linux naming, the more generic
"module" name seemed fine to me.

Jason
