I agree with the movement (neither of these hooks are x86-specific), but
this patch also needs to move the hooks in xen/include/xsm/xsm.h and
xen/xsm/flask/hooks.c out of the same #ifdefs.

On a mostly unrelated note, Ian: do you think it would be useful to add 
build tests with XSM enabled to catch these types of issues during the
automated testing?  It just requires "echo XSM_ENABLE=y > .config"
before the build, and is apparently best done for both x86 and arm.
