There are a number of concerns here.
First and foremost, why is a new domctl being added? Surely this should
just be a "type of ring access" parameter to event_enable? Everything
else in the vm_event set of APIs should be unchanged as a result of the
interface differences.
Or am I missing something?

This creates pages which are reference-able (in principle) by the guest,
and are bounded by d->max_pages.
Both of these are properties of the existing interface which we'd prefer
to remove.

You appear to have opencoded vmalloc() here. Is there any reason not to
use that?

mfn_to_page() is going to explode before this ASSERT() does.

You don't free the event channels on error.
Please write make the destructor idempotent and call it from here.

These are unnecessary, as they don't deviate from the default.
