    xen/arm64: macros: Introduce an assembly macro to alias x30
    
    The return address of a function is always stored in x30. For convenience,
    introduce a register alias so "lr" can be used in assembly.
    
    This is defined in asm-arm/arm64/macros.h to allow all assembly files
    to use it.
