Better to stay consistent with sysctl.h.   Separating the structure and
the subops is unhelpful to people reading the code.

I hope "XEN_SYSCTL_tmem_op" is sufficient to imply "using the sysctl
hypercall" ;)

Really? that doesn't sound like me.  Apologies if it was.  (Alphabetic
for obj-y in a Makefile perhaps?)

Numeric would be far better here.
