arm: use r12 to pass the hypercall number

** This is a guest visible ABI change which requires an updated guest kernel **

Use r12 to pass the hypercall number and r0-r4 for the hypercall
arguments.

Use the ISS to pass an hypervisor specific tag.

Remove passing unused registers to arm_hypercall_table: we don't have 6
arguments hypercalls and we never use 64 bit values as hypercall
arguments, 64 bit values are only contained within structs passed as
arguments.

[ use #ifndef NDEBUG, fix coding style, expand calling convention comment
  slightly and added a big fat note about ABI change - ijc ]

/* hypercall calling convention
* ----------------------------
*
* A hypercall is issued using the ARM HVC instruction.
*
* A hypercall can take up to 5 arguments. These are passed in
* registers, the first argument in r0, the second argument in r1, the
* third in r2, the forth in r3 and the fifth in r4.
*
* The hypercall number is passed in r12.
*
* The HVC ISS must contain a Xen specific TAG: XEN_HYPERCALL_TAG.
*
* The return value is in r0.
*
* The hypercall will always clobber r0, r1, r2, r3, r4 and r12,
* regardless of how many arguments the particular hypercall takes.
