Currently, only a very small subset of the hypercalls are exposed to HVM

para-virtualized drivers? Or are there other considerations that governed
this decision. Specifically, would there be any objections to opening up more
hypercalls to HVM guests.
They need auditing one-by-one, and also we have to worry about 32-on-64
compatibility issues (which will be helped by the PV PAE-on-64 work by Jan
Beulich). We do plan to broaden the supported set of hypercalls (memory_op
for example).
