Please add the following patch to fix this.  This would also be
needed for 5.15-stable.

Subject: [PATCH] x86/xen: Fix initialisation in hypercall_page after rethunk

The hypercall_page is special and the RETs there should not be changed
into rethunk calls (but can have SLS mitigation).  Change the initial
instructions to ret + int3 padding, as was done in upstream commit
5b2fc51576ef "x86/ibt,xen: Sprinkle the ENDBR".

Always try to do things in chronological order;
it's less confusing that way.
