Given xen_swiotlb is only defined on arm, how will
this build on other architectures?

I'd say at this point, I'm sorry we didn't come up with PLATFORM_ACCESS
when we added the xen hack.

I'm not objecting to this patch but I would also like to bypass the xen
hack for VIRTIO 1 devices. In particular I know rpmsg is still virtio 0
so it's not an issue for it. Is Xen already using VIRTIO 1, and without
setting PLATFORM_ACCESS? If not I would like to teach
vring_use_dma_api to return false on VIRTIO_1 && !PLATFORM_ACCESS.

Would that be acceptable?
