Subject: [PATCH v2 6/8] x86/xen: Use __pa_symbol instead of __pa on C visible
	symbols

This change updates a few of the functions to use __pa_symbol when
translating C visible symbols instead of __pa.  By using __pa_symbol we are
able to drop a few extra lines of code as don't have to test to see if the
virtual pointer is a part of the kernel text or just standard virtual memory.
