In some introspection usecases, an in-guest agent needs to communicate
with the external introspection agent.  An existing mechanism is
HVMOP_guest_request_vm_event, but this is restricted to kernel usecases
like all other hypercalls.

Introduce a mechanism whereby the introspection agent can whitelist the
use of HVMOP_guest_request_vm_event directly from userspace.

Changes since V8:
	- Changed funtion name from arch_allow_userspace to
	arch_monitor_allow_userspace
	- Added Wei Liu's ack from v7

Note: Could not test on ARM, compiled both on arm and x86
