xen/hypercall: fix hypercall fallback code for very old hypervisors
While copying the argument structures in HYPERVISOR_event_channel_op() and HYPERVISOR_physdev_op() into the local variable is sufficiently safe even if the actual structure is smaller than the container one, copying back eventual output values the same way isn't: This may collide with on-stack variables (particularly "rc") which may change between the first and second memcpy() (i.e. the second memcpy() could discard that change). Move the fallback code into out-of-line functions, and handle all of the operations known by this old a hypervisor individually: Some don't require copying back anything at all, and for the rest use the individual argument structures' sizes rather than the container's.
