For the moment, I would say no since this hook is in the
do_update_va_mapping hypercall which currently exists only in the x86
bits of xen. The flask module and XSM code are also bounded by ifdefs,
so for non-x86 archs it is not included. Should other archs ever
develop equivalent funcs, I'd be happy to update this hook to a more
generic interface to accommodate these archs and reduce the number of
arch specific hooks.
