#1532937 — [RFC PATCH v2] xen/x86: Increase xen_e820_map to E820_X_MAX possible entries

Here's the second round of my patches to fix up the problems that we're
seeing with the XENMEM_machine_memory_map hypercall.  These few simple
changes, to give xen_e820_map some extra space, get things working fine
on our large machine.

This version of the patchset adds a patch to remove the #ifdef
CONFIG_EFI conditional around the definition of E820_X_MAX, so that it's
always slightly larger than E820MAX.  I've also tweaked the code that
works on xen_e820_map to use ARRAY_SIZE(xen_e820_map) instead of using
E820_X_MAX directly, as suggested by Boris.

As always, I appreciate any input that others can give!
