So this will get called on any system which has CONFIG_PARAVIRT enabled
*even* if they're not running any guests.

   Borislav ,
   yes,  this will get called on any system which has CONFIG_PARAVIRT enabled.

   but if they are not running any guests,  the callback is paravirt_nop() ,    IIUC which is as similar as the other paravirt_*, such as paravirt_pgd_free()..
