Refactoring what? All am suggesting is

If shared_info_pfn is NULL you'd have problems long before hibernation
started. We set it in xen_hvm_guest_init() and never touch again.


In fact, I'd argue that it should be __ro_after_init.

I wasn't arguing whether HYPERVISOR_shared_info needs to be set, I was
only saying that shared_info_pfn doesn't need to be tested.
