Victor Sun c74b1941a0 HV: split sanitize_multiboot_info api
Previously sanitize_multiboot_info() was called after init_debug_pre() because
the debug message can only print after uart is initialized. On the other hand,
multiboot cmdline need to be parsed before init_debug_pre() because the cmdline
could override uart settings and make sure debug message printed successfully.
This cause multiboot info was parsed in two stages.

The patch revise the multiboot parse logic that split sanitize_multiboot_info()
api and use init_acrn_multiboot_info() api for the early stage. The most of
multiboot info will be initialized during this stage and no debug message need
to be printed. After uart is initialized, the sanitize_multiboot_info() would
do sanitize multiboot info and print needed debug messages.

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.
