The existing XEN_DOMCTL_SHADOW_OP_{GET,SET}_ALLOCATION have problems:
* All set_allocation() flavours have an overflow-before-widen bug when
calculating "sc->mb << (20 - PAGE_SHIFT)".
* All flavours have a granularity of 1M. This was tolerable when the size of
the pool could only be set at the same granularity, but is broken now that
ARM has a 16-page stopgap allocation in use.
* All get_allocation() flavours round up, and in particular turn 0 into 1,
meaning the get op returns junk before a successful set op.
* The x86 flavours reject the hypercalls before the VM has vCPUs allocated,
despite the pool size being a domain property.
* Even the hypercall names are long-obsolete.
Implement a better interface, which can be first used to unit test the
behaviour, and subsequently correct a broken implementation. The old
interface will be retired in due course.
The unit of bytes (as opposed pages) is a deliberate API/ABI improvement to
more easily support multiple page granularities.
This is part of XSA-409 / CVE-2022-33747.
