Subject: xen/events: Clear cpu_evtchn_mask before resuming

commit 5cec98834989a014a9560b1841649eaca95cf00e upstream.

When a guest is resumed, the hypervisor may change event channel
assignments. If this happens and the guest uses 2-level events it
is possible for the interrupt to be claimed by wrong VCPU since
cpu_evtchn_mask bits may be stale. This can happen even though
evtchn_2l_bind_to_cpu() attempts to clear old bits: irq_info that
is passed in is not necessarily the original one (from pre-migration
times) but instead is freshly allocated during resume and so any
information about which CPU the channel was bound to is lost.

Thus we should clear the mask during resume.

We also need to make sure that bits for xenstore and console channels
are set when these two subsystems are resumed. While rebind_evtchn_irq()
(which is invoked for both of them on a resume) calls irq_set_affinity(),
the latter will in fact postpone setting affinity until handling the
interrupt. But because cpu_evtchn_mask will have bits for these two
cleared we won't be able to take the interrupt.

With that in mind, we need to bind those two channels explicitly in
rebind_evtchn_irq(). We will keep irq_set_affinity() so that we have a
pass through generic irq affinity code later, in case something needs
to be updated there as well.

(Also replace cpumask_of(0) with cpumask_of(info->cpu) in
rebind_evtchn_irq(): it should be set to zero in preceding
xen_irq_info_evtchn_setup().)
