x86/xen: allow userspace access during hypercalls
commit c54590ca upstream. Userspace application can do a hypercall through /dev/xen/privcmd, and some for some hypercalls argument is a pointers to user-provided structure. When SMAP is supported and enabled, hypervisor can't access. So, lets allow it. The same applies to HYPERVISOR_dm_op, where additionally privcmd driver carefully verify buffer addresses.
