xen: import arch generic part of xencomm
On xen/ia64 and xen/powerpc hypercall arguments are passed by pseudo physical address (guest physical address) so that it's necessary to convert from virtual address into pseudo physical address. The frame work is called xencomm. Import arch generic part of xencomm.
