There are some paravirt assembler functions which are sharing a common
pattern. Introduce a macro DEFINE_PARAVIRT_ASM() for creating them.

Note that this macro is including explicit alignment of the generated
functions, leading to __raw_callee_save___kvm_vcpu_is_preempted(),
_paravirt_nop() and paravirt_ret0() to be aligned at 4 byte boundaries
now.

The explicit _paravirt_nop() prototype in paravirt.c isn't needed, as
it is included in paravirt_types.h already.

Seems nice; I've made the below little edits, but this is certainly a
bit large for /urgent at this point in time. So how about I merge
locking/urgent into x86/paravirt and munge this on top?

Fine with me.

Thanks for looking at the patch,


Juergen
