It happens inside privcmd_hypercall(). See
http://xenbits.xensource.com/ext/linux-ppc-2.6.hg?file/04f6ad5d9232/arch/powerpc/platforms/xen/hcall.c

(In that tree, the function is named "arch_privcmd_hypercall".) IA64 and
PPC both implement this function now; only x86 is left with #ifdefs in
drivers/xen/privcmd/privcmd.c .

COMPATIBLE_IOCTL is just about the ioctl itself, not the sub-structures.
