    build/clang: fix XSM dummy policy when using clang 4.0
    
    There seems to be some weird bug in clang 4.0 that prevents xsm_pmu_op from
    working as expected, and vpmu.o ends up with a reference to
    __xsm_action_mismatch_detected which makes the build fail:
    
    [...]
    ld    -melf_x86_64_fbsd  -T xen.lds -N prelink.o  \
        xen/common/symbols-dummy.o -o xen/.xen-syms.0
    prelink.o: In function `xsm_default_action':
    xen/include/xsm/dummy.h:80: undefined reference to 
`__xsm_action_mismatch_detected'
    xen/xen/include/xsm/dummy.h:80: relocation truncated to fit: R_X86_64_PC32 
against undefined symbol `__xsm_action_mismatch_detected'
    ld: xen/xen/.xen-syms.0: hidden symbol `__xsm_action_mismatch_detected' 
isn't defined
    
    Then doing a search in the objects files:
    
    # find xen/ -type f -name '*.o' -print0 | xargs -0 bash -c \
      'for filename; do nm "$filename" | \
      grep -q __xsm_action_mismatch_detected && echo "$filename"; done' bash
    xen/arch/x86/prelink.o
    xen/arch/x86/cpu/vpmu.o
    xen/arch/x86/cpu/built_in.o
    xen/arch/x86/built_in.o
    
    The current patch is the only way I've found to fix this so far, by simply
    moving the XSM_PRIV check into the default case in xsm_pmu_op. This also 
fixes
    the behavior of do_xenpmu_op, which will now return -EINVAL for unknown
    XENPMU_* operations, instead of -EPERM when called by a privileged domain.
