Hi,

This patch implements the 6 arguments hypercalls.
The sixth argument is passed using ebp or r9.

Signed-off-by: Jean Guyader <jean.guyader@xxxxxxxxxx>

I tried to make this as clean as I could, but the hack we have
to do to use ebp doesn't really help.

Please let me know if you could think of a cleaner way to do it.
