Jailhouse as type-1 hypevisor on ARM platforms

Jailhouse is a lightweight hypervisor suitable for industrial and automotive applications. It's a partitioning based hypervisor; it tries to partition the resources and avoids any sharing of the resources.

One problem with Jailhouse has been that it is a type-2 hypervisor. Which means, it is loaded with assistance from a host operating system. After the bootloader, an operating system boots, then it enables Jailhouse hypervisor and then other VMs can be created and started eventually.
