If you tell us what you need it for (apart from the memory locking for tools
operations, which is just unfortunate, and I wonder if there is perhaps a
better way to address that problem) then perhaps we can extend platform_op()
to provide the same functionality?

At least you can interrogate CPUID(0x40000001) to find the Xen version and
hence have a kernel that is portable for both 3.1 and 3.2 sysctl
interfaces...
