Hello All,
        This series of patches gets xentrace working on PPC.  Clearly the first
2 patches are PPC specific, but the last 3 are xen-devel material.

Essentially the patches do:
 1. Introduce a #define for decorating xenheap(and htab) pages.
 2. Wire up xentrace and use the pfn decoration.
 3. Use unit32_t instead of unsigned long.
 4. Make the xentrace tool (xentrace copies the xentrace buffers from xen
    memory to disk) write data in network byte order.
 5. Various cleanups.
    This patch is optional.

Please have a look before for I send patches 3-5 to xen-devel.
