Today only a few sysfs nodes under /sys/hypervisor/ are documented
for Xen in Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-hypervisor-pmu.

Add the remaining Xen sysfs nodes under /sys/hypervisor/ in a new
file Documentation/ABI/stable/sysfs-hypervisor-xen and add the Xen
specific sysfs docs to the MAINTAINERS file.

Signed-off-by: Juergen Gross <jgross@suse.com>
---
V2:
  - rename file to Documentation/ABI/stable/sysfs-hypervisor-xen in
    order to reflect Xen dependency
  - leave pmu entries in old file under testing (Boris Ostrovsky)
