Instead of manually list each hypercall in arch/x86/xen/xen-head.S
use the auto generated symbol list.

This also corrects the wrong address of xen_hypercall_mca which was
located 32 bytes higher than it should.

Symbol addresses have been verified to match the correct ones via
objdump output.

The gas manual[1] suggests the syntax you've used for .type is invalid
and suggest using .type <name>, STT_FUNC

Really? In the link below I see:

The types supported are:

STT_FUNC
function
    Mark the symbol as being a function name.
...

So "function" seems to be okay.

  	.balign PAGE_SIZE

You can remove this .balign.

Indeed.
