[PATCH 2/3] lguest: more lazy_hcalls

[Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>]

Some hypercalls can be batched: lazy_hcall is the wrapper which
determines this, so it's pretty harmless to use lazy_hcall() instead of
hcall().

Before:
Time for one context switch via pipe: 6745 (6521 - 13966)

After:
Time for one context switch via pipe: 5406 (5170 - 7467)
