Put what machinery to do what?

x86_platform.get_wallclock should always be xen_get_wallclock().

Is this really copyright by you personally and not Oracle?

Macros that declare local variables are awful.

Use what Andrew suggested and something like

struct xen_blah *call = &op.u.efi_runtime_call;

Xen provides functionality to reset (just maybe not via an EFI call).
Should an implementation be provided that does this?

if (!xen_initial_domain())
return NULL;

if (HYPERVISOR_dom0_op(&op) < 0)
return NULL;
