Instead we use an unified parameter 'nopv' for all the hypervisor
platforms.

Disables the ticketlock slowpath using Xen PV
optimizations.
- xen_nopv [X86]
- Disables the PV optimizations forcing the HVM guest to
- run as generic HVM guest with no PV drivers.

So someone upgrades the kernel and suddenly things work differently?
At least there should be a warning that the option has been replaced
with 'nopv' (but I would actually keep this option working as well).
OK, I'll add new patch to map xen_nopv to nopv. So if 'xen_nopv' is
used, we go
to the path for 'nopv'. I will be same effect.
Thanks
