I am still very much unconvinced by the argument against having a single
HVMOP_altp2m and a set of subops.  do_domctl() and do_sysctl() are
examples of a subop style hypercall with different XSM settings for
different subops.

Furthermore, factoring out a do_altp2m_op() handler would allow things
like the hvm_altp2m_supported() check to be made common.  Factoring
further to having a named common header of a subop and a domid at the
head of every subop structure would allow all the domain rcu locking to
become common outside of the subop switch.

In addition,

Brackets around the boolean operation on this line, and a space inside
the final bracket.

Explicit padding bytes here please.
