So this was originally submitted with 9c89dc95201 and 7d418eab3b6 and
was rejected since the goal was to convert gdbsx to use libxc but that
hasn't happened. /dev/xen/privcmd should be preferred and this change
makes that happen. It would be nice if we landed this with the plan
to convert gdbsx happening when it happens.

Oh well... I think this is fine.

Elena has the final verdict.

I think this is fine.
I will look into the conversion and relevant discussions if I find them and
see what can be done.

Thanks!
