Fix a huge privilege separation vulnerability in Xen-amd64.
On amd64 the kernel runs in ring3, like userland, and therefore SEL_KPL
equals SEL_UPL. While Xen can make a distinction between usermode and
kernelmode in %cs, it can't when it comes to iopl. Since we set SEL_KPL
in iopl, Xen sees SEL_UPL, and allows (unprivileged) userland processes
to read and write to the CPU ports.
It is easy, then, to completely escalate privileges; by reprogramming the
PIC, by reading the ATA disks, by intercepting the keyboard interrupts
(keylogger), etc.
Declare IOPL_KPL, set to 1 on Xen-amd64, which allows the kernel to use
the ports but not userland. I didn't test this change on i386, but it
seems fine enough.
