[LINUX] Remove hypercall permission checks from privcmd driver.
This will allow the tools management to be revised independently
of dom0 kernel interfaces. Currently tools cannot be 'smarter'
than the kernel in terms of hypercalls they know about, because
the kernel disallows access to any hypercalls it does not know
about.
