PATCH v2 1/1 xen: remove Xencomm

Being a feature that has only been used by ia64 and/or ppc it doesn't seem like we need to keep it any longer in the tree.

So remove it.

---
This was suggested by Boris a while ago and seems to have stalled.

v2: leave public header in place (suggested by Jan Beulich).

Are folks OK if this is deferred to Xen 4.6?

Thank you!

Yes, sure. I'll queue it up for committing after the branch.

Sure, albeit I can't resist to say that the change is zero risk.
