From: Stefano Stabellini <stefano.stabellini@xilinx.com>

Introduce a new "xen,enhanced" dom0less property to enable/disable PV
driver interfaces for dom0less guests. Currently only "enabled" and
"disabled" are supported property values (and empty). Leave the option
open to implement further possible values in the future (e.g.
"xenstore" to enable only xenstore.) Dom0 presence is required for now
to use "xen,enhanced" on a domU.

The configurable option is for domUs only. For dom0 we always set the
corresponding property in the Xen code to true (PV interfaces enabled.)

This patch only parses the property. Next patches will make use of it.

Changes in v7:
- add a check if dom0 is missing and xen,enhanced was specified
- Bertrand gave his reviewed-by but I removed it due to the new check

Changes in v4:
- move xen,enhanced to the bottom of the list
- do not set kinfo.dom0less_enhanced for dom0

Changes in v3:
- improve commit message

Changes in v2:
- rename kinfo.enhanced to kinfo.dom0less_enhanced
- set kinfo.dom0less_enhanced to true for dom0
- handle -ENODATA in addition to -EILSEQ

In general, I prefer if we fail early for configuration error because 
this makes a lot more obvious what the issue is.

So I would switch to panic() and drop "Error:". This can be done on commit:
