Please see patch 1/3 for a description. This has been tested with a KVM
guest on x86_64 and appears to work properly. Comments, please.

What about the hypercalls in include/asm/kvm_para.h?

In general, hypercalls cannot be generic since each hypervisor implements its own ABI. The abstraction needs to be at a higher level (pv_ops is such a level).
