As I mentioned, that can not work for all the case, some place that need
the orginal copy like linear page table, so I only put the test in 
copy_to/from_user,
and not __copy_to/from_user. and put/get_user

This patch only add a vmx_hypercall_table, if you don't like two tables
how about have a bitmap for the hypercall table to allow or prohibit the call
from vmx domain instead?
