/*
 * This API is problematic.
 *
 * It is only applicable to guests which share pagetables with Xen (x86 PV
 * guests), but unfortunately has leaked into other guest types and
 * architectures with an expectation of never failing.
 *
 * It is intended to identify the virtual address split between guest kernel
 * and Xen.
 *
 * For 32bit PV guests, there is a split, and it is variable (between two
 * fixed bounds), and this boundary is reported to guests.  The detail missing
 * from the hypercall is that the second boundary is the 32bit architectural
 * boundary at 4G.
 *
 * For 64bit PV guests, Xen lives at the bottom of the upper canonical range.
 * This hypercall happens to report the architectural boundary, not the one
 * which would be necessary to make a variable split work.  As such, this
 * hypercall entirely useless for 64bit PV guests, and all inspected
 * implementations at the time of writing were found to have compile time
 * expectations about the split.
 *
 * For architectures where this hypercall is implemented, for backwards
 * compatibility with the expectation of the hypercall never failing Xen will
 * return 0 instead of failing with -ENOSYS in cases where the guest should
 * not be making the hypercall.

 *
 * Passing arg == NULL is a request for size, which will be signalled with a

 * Otherwise, the input xen_varbuf_t provides the size of the following

 * (e.g. if the input buffer was longer than necessary).

 * Some subops may return binary data.  Some subops may be expected to return
 * textural data.  These are returned without a NUL terminator, and while the
 * contents is expected to be ASCII/UTF-8, Xen makes no guarentees to this
