mach-virt has existed for a while but it is not written down what it actually
consists of. Although it seems a bit unusual to document a binding for an
entire platform since mach-virt is entirely virtual it is helpful to have
something to refer to in the absence of a single concrete implementation.

I've done my best to capture the requirements based on the git log and my
memory/understanding.

While here remove the xenvm dts example, the Xen tools will now build a
suitable mach-virt compatible dts when launching the guest.

It might be worth noting in the changeset comment that the 'compatible'
string is actually no longer needed on newer kernels: All the members
of the machine descriptor are now the defaults (we should remove the
virt_init() function as well), and the fallback machine descriptor should
work just fine if any other string gets passed.

I will ack the patch that removes the mach-virt directory altogether!
