The commit
569fb6c "xen/arm: Data abort exception (R/W) mem_access
events" makes apply_p2m_changes to call hypercall_preempt_check for any
operation rather than for relinquish.
The function hypercall_preempt_check call local_events_need_delivery
which rely on the current VCPU is not an idle VCPU.
Although, during DOM0 building the current VCPU is an idle one. This
would make Xen crash with the following stack trace:
(XEN) CPU0: Unexpected Trap: Data Abort
[...]

hypercall_preempt_check is expecting to be call only when the current
VCPU belong to a real domain (see x86 behavior).
As the bug prevents Xen booting on some platform, fix it by only check
preemption when the current VCPU is an idle one for now. We could
improve it later.
