[PATCH] arm/xen: Enable user access to the kernel before issuing a privcmd call

[Julien Grall]

When Xen is copyin data to/from the guest it will check if the kernel
has the right to do the access. If not, the hypercall will return an
error.

After the commit a5e090acbf545c0a3b04080f8a488b17ec41fe02 "ARM:
software-based priviledged-no-access support", the kernel can't access
anymore the user space by default. This will result to fail on every
hypercall made by the userspace (i.e via privcmd).

We have to enable the userspace access and then restore the correct
permission everytime the privmcd is used to made an hypercall.

I didn't find generic helpers to do a these operations, so the change
is only arm32 specific.

    ARM64 doesn't seem to have priviledge no-access support yet so there
    is nothing to do for now.

    I haven't look x86 at all.
