Now that we have both the old VGIC prepared to cope with a sibling and
the code for the new VGIC in place, lets add a Kconfig option to enable
the new code and wire it into the Xen build system.
This will add a compile time option to use either the "old" or the "new"
VGIC.
In the moment this is restricted to a vGIC-v2. To make the build system
happy, we provide a temporary dummy implementation of
vgic_v3_setup_hw() to allow building for now.

Changelog v2 ... v3:
- fix indentation of Kconfig entry
- select NEEDS_LIST_SORT
- drop unconditional list_sort.o inclusion

Changelog v1 ... v2:
- add Kconfig help text
- use separate Makefile in vgic/ directory
- protect compilation without GICV3 support
- always include list_sort() in build

One major inconvenience with that solution is GICv3 driver is going to 
be initialized but then you hit the BUG_ON() in domain_vgic_register. 
This is really not nice for the user but it is not obvious why the 
BUG_ON() is hit.

I am ok if you don't want to touch the Kconfig. But I would at least 
implement that helper with a panic("vGICv3 not yet supported with the 
new vGIC");

Cheers,

Yes, that's a good point (and easy to implement!) ;-)

Also I think we should have something saying that we are using the new
VGIC, so we have it in the logs. Just realised this when I was wondering
if my machine is currently using the new or the old VGIC ;-)

I put something in the vgic_v2_setup_hw() implementation.

Cheers,
Andre.
