This is the best option I think. But I'm loathe to make it part of the
guest_handle API. We should avoid getting into this mess in the first place
for future hypercalls, so this will be a memory-specific function.

We should stick it at the top of memory.c, with a comment and make it a
no-op dependent on something like ARCH_HAS_XENCOMM (or just __ia64__ ||
__powerpc__ would be fine, actually, since it's just one place).
