When acrn_hypervisor is detected, the hypercall is needed so that the
acrn guest can query/config some settings. For example: it can be used
to query the resources in hypervisor and manage the CPU/memory/device/
interrupt for Guest system.

So the hypercall is added so that the kernel can communicate with the
low-level acrn-hypervisor. On x86 it is implemented by using vmacll when
the acrn hypervisor is enabled.

V1->V2: Refine the comments for the function of acrn_hypercall0/1/2
v2->v3: Use the "vmcall" mnemonic to replace hard-code byte definition
