Juergen Gross 4c24703978 x86/xen: remove hypercall page
commit 7fa0da5373685e7ed249af3fa317ab1e1ba8b0a6 upstream.

The hypercall page is no longer needed. It can be removed, as from the
Xen perspective it is optional.

But, from Linux's perspective, it removes naked RET instructions that
escape the speculative protections that Call Depth Tracking and/or
Untrain Ret are trying to achieve.

This is part of XSA-466 / CVE-2024-53241.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
