    x86/pv: Change type of do_update_descriptor()'s desc parameter
    
    The automatically generated hypercall dispatch logic looks like:
    
        case __HYPERVISOR_update_descriptor: \
            ret = do_update_descriptor((uint64_t)(a1), (seg_desc_t)(a2)); \
            break; \
    
    but seg_desc_t is a union and Eclair considers this to be a violation of 
MISRA
    Rule 1.1.  There's also a Rule 8.3 violation for the parameter name 
mismatch.
    
    Instead of playing games trying to change seg_desc_t to be a struct, or to
    alter the AWK generator to know that seg_desc_t is magic and needs braces
    rather than brackets, just switch the type to be a plain uint64_t.
    
    The size is fixed by the x86 architecture, so it is never going to change.
    This even lets us simplify compat_update_descriptor() a little.
    
    No functional change.
