Subject: [PATCH 7/8] xen/i386: reserve Xen pagetables

From: Jeremy Fitzhardinge <jeremy.fitzhardinge@...rix.com>

The Xen pagetables are no longer implicitly reserved as part of the other
i386_start_kernel reservations, so make sure we explicitly reserve them.
This prevents them from being released into the general kernel free page
pool and reused.
