Change all references to /dev/xen/evtchn to /dev/evtchn as this is where udev
creates the device entry.  /dev/xen was the location that we used under
devfs. In some of the tools, we were creating /dev/xen/evtchn if it did not
already exist.  We really should not do that.

It'd be good to keep /dev/xen/evtchn. Perhaps we can make udev create the device node there instead of /dev/evtchn? Also changes less code....
