xen/setup: Route halt operations to safe_halt pvop.
With this patch, the cpuidle driver does not load and does not issue the mwait operations. Instead the hypervisor is doing them (b/c we call the safe_halt pvops call). This fixes quite a lot of bootup issues wherein the user had to force interrupts for the continuation of the bootup.
