[Xen-devel] [PATCH v4] x86/hvm: Allow guest_request vm_events coming from userspace



In some introspection usecases, an in-guest agent needs to communicate
with the external introspection agent.  An existing mechanism is
HVMOP_guest_request_vm_event, but this is restricted to kernel usecases
like all other hypercalls.

Introduce a mechanism whereby the introspection agent can whitelist the
use of HVMOP_guest_request_vm_event directly from userspace.

Changes since V3:
        - Changed commit message
        - Added new lines
        - Indent the maximum space on the defines
        - Chaned the name of the define/function name/struct member
          from vmcall to event
