Subject: x86/xen: don't reset vcpu_info on a cancelled suspend
commit 6a1f513776b78c994045287073e55bae44ed9f8c upstream.
On a cancelled suspend the vcpu_info location does not change (it's
still in the per-cpu area registered by xen_vcpu_setup()). So do not
call xen_hvm_init_shared_info() which would make the kernel think its
back in the shared info. With the wrong vcpu_info, events cannot be
received and the domain will hang after a cancelled suspend.
