Ok.
I'm not sure I can claim I know what I'm doing, but I think this does
the right thing now.

Subject: [PATCH] xen: allow privcmd hypercalls to be preempted
Hypercalls submitted by user space tools via the privcmd driver can
take a long time (potentially many 10s of seconds) if the hypercall
has many sub-operations.
A fully preemptible kernel may deschedule such a task in any upcall
called from a hypercall continuation.
However, in a kernel with voluntary or no preemption, hypercall
continuations in Xen allow event handlers to be run but the task
issuing the hypercall will not be descheduled until the hypercall is
complete and the ioctl returns to user space. These long running
tasks may also trigger the kernel's soft lockup detection.
Add xen_preemptible_hcall_begin() and xen_preemptible_hcall_end() to
bracket hypercalls that may be preempted. Use these in the privcmd
driver.
When returning from an upcall, call preempt_schedule_irq() if the
current task was within a preemptible hypercall.
Since preempt_schedule_irq() can move the task to a different CPU,
clear and set xen_in_preemptible_hcall around the call.
