Pull loop-invariant checks out of the loop. Furthermore reject such
requests for non-HVM domains, rather than treating them as no-op and
signalling success to the caller.

Sadly with this the compiler can't DCE the function call anymore, so
we need a stub now.

I was tempted to invert the condition of the if() in the latter hunk, for
the remaining one in its present body to then become "else if()". The
larger resulting diff may be disliked, though ...

Handling of other sub-ops will continue to silently ignore
XENMEMF_populate_on_demand.
