This is inappropriate inside libxenguest. The user of the library
possibly already has open evtchn handle. While this is only wasteful of
an fd under linux, I believe it will result in open() failing under some
of the *BSDs
The correct way of doing this is to have the caller of
xc_mem_paging_ring_setup() provide their xce_handle, and require them to
open one if they need to.

There is a race condition here where the guest can play with the
post-initialised ring state.

You are not introducing any libxenstore calls into xenpaging. This
change is bogus.
