xen: fixes for 4.18-rc2

It contains the following fixes/cleanups:

- the removal of a BUG_ON() which wasn't necessary and which could
  trigger now due to a recent change

- a correction of a long standing bug happening very rarely in Xen
  dom0 when a hypercall buffer from user land was not accessible by
  the hypervisor for very short periods of time due to e.g. page
  migration or compaction

- usage of EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL() instead EXPORT_SYMBOL() in a Xen-related
  driver (no breakage possible as using those symbols without others
  already exported via EXPORT-SYMBOL_GPL() wouldn't make any sense)

- a simplification for Xen PVH or Xen ARM guests

- some additional error handling for callers of xenbus_printf()


Thanks.

Juergen
