[PATCH 13/14] i386 / Introduce hypervisor ldt hooks

[zach]

Add hooks that the hypervisor can use to establish writable and non-writable
pages for LDT pages.  I made these parallel the page flags as defined in
include/linux/page-flags.h, since the flag mechanism is very similar to the
hypercall page flagging, and extended easily later to include PT, PD, PDP,
GDT, etc.
