Victor Sun afe24731a7 HV: vm_load: remove load_sw_modules() api
In load_sw_modules() implementation, we always assuming the guest kernel
module has one load address and then the whole kernel image would be loaded
to guest space from its load address. This is not true when guest kernel
has multiple load addresses like ELF format kernel image.

This patch removes load_sw_modules() API, and the loading method of each
format of kernel image could be specified in prepare_loading_xxximage() API.

Tracked-On: #6323

ACRN Hypervisor
###############

The open source `Project ACRN`_ defines a device hypervisor reference stack and
an architecture for running multiple software subsystems, managed securely, on
a consolidated system by means of a virtual machine manager. It also defines a
reference framework implementation for virtual device emulation, called the
"ACRN Device Model".

The ACRN Hypervisor is a Type 1 reference hypervisor stack, running directly on
the bare-metal hardware, and is suitable for a variety of IoT and embedded
device solutions. The ACRN hypervisor addresses the gap that currently exists
between datacenter hypervisors, and hard partitioning hypervisors. The ACRN
hypervisor architecture partitions the system into different functional
domains, with carefully selected guest OS sharing optimizations for IoT and
embedded devices.

You can find out more about Project ACRN on the `Project ACRN documentation`_
website.
