    x86/guest: move allocation of Xen upcall vector to init code
    
    There's no need to do this every time init_evtchn() is called. Just do it
    once when setting up CPU0. Drop the assertion as well, as
    alloc_hipriority_vector() (called by alloc_direct_apic_vector()) uses more
    restrictive BUG_ON() anyway. Then evtchn_upcall_vector can also validly
    become ro-after-init, just that it needs to move out of init_evtchn().
    
    While touching the function, add a comment why other seemingly-BSP code
    can't move out of there (into e.g. an __init one).
