libxc: New hcall_buf_{prep,release} pre-mlock interface
Allow certain performance-critical hypercall wrappers to register data buffers via a new interface which allows them to be 'bounced' into a pre-mlock'ed page-sized per-thread data area. This saves the cost of mlock/munlock on every such hypercall, which can be very expensive on modern kernels. Signed-off-by: Keir Fraser <keir.fraser@citrix.com>
