    xsm/evtchn: never pretend to have successfully created a Xen event channel
    
    Xen event channels are not internal resources.  They still have one end in a
    domain, and are created at the request of privileged domains.  This logic
    which "successfully" creates a Xen event channel opens up undesirable 
failure
    cases with ill-specified XSM policies.
    
    If a domain is permitted to create ioreq servers or memevent listeners, but
    not to create event channels, the ioreq/memevent creation will succeed but
    attempting to bind the returned event channel will fail without any 
indication
    of a permission error.
