x86/xen: Simplify set_aliased_prot()
A year ago, via the following commit: aa1acff356bb ("x86/xen: Probe target addresses in set_aliased_prot() before the hypercall") I added an explicit probe to work around a hypercall issue. The code can be simplified by using probe_kernel_read(). No change in functionality.
