[PATCH] tools/libxc: Avoid hypercalls for cacheflush on x86

[Andrew Cooper <andrew.cooper3@citrix.com>]

XEN_DOMCTL_cacheflush hypercalls are -ENOSYS on x86.  As domain
creation/migration is already very hypercall-heavy, avoid making extra
redundant hypercalls

Discovered when running valgrind against XenServer trunk, which is now 4.4
based.
