Xen devel - Oct 2012 - [QEMU PATCH] create struct for machine initialization arguments

This should help us to:
 - More easily add or remove machine initialization arguments without
   having to change every single machine init function;
 - More easily make mechanical changes involving the machine init
   functions in the future;
 - Let machine initialization forward the init arguments to other
   functions more easily.

This change was half-mechanical process: first the struct was added with
the local ram_size, boot_device, kernel_*, initrd_*, and cpu_model local
variable initialization to all functions. Then the compiler helped me
locate the local variables that are unused, so they could be removed.
